Desktop Search

What works

Installation

Indexing if Windows native query.dll is used (is useless if run directly after install.  Must close down Google Desktop and launch it again and indexing works fine) .

Searching the desktop after indexing is complete or while in progress. 

What does not

Preferences (from Google Desktop webpage or by right clicking on Google Desktop icon in system tray) - launches a blank page.

Sidebar

Deskbar

Floating Deskbar

 Sidebar add-ins
 

 If Google Desktop is launched and Preferences are selected then the orginal web browser that launches is closed, no other web browsers will connect to localhost unless Google Desktop is exited and relaunched.

Additional Comments

I call this a bronze because I am able to search my desktop. The only thing that isn't working currently is sidebar and sidebar add-ins.
