Snowbird Description:
It's still the smallest and fastest non-indexing search tool! Maybe search can't get any faster, but you can find your results still faster now!
* Snowbird 6 displays results in real-time as the search progresses
* The new preview window lets you peek at text files, pictures and webpages from within Snowbird
Operating System Support: Windows
Review for Snowbird
Fast
A lot faster than Windows search.
Used my benchmark for testing search programs. Searched for the word "left" in C: (both file name and file content)
Snowbird clocked 00.01'45" and turned up 743 results.
Windows Search : Took ages, at the end of 8 mins it displayed 72 results. I then lost patience and quit.
Pros : Fast.
Categorizes
Opens results in html page (easy to read)
Shows thumbnails of pics
Cons : Results page shows up automatically on existing browser window. | VERY IRRITATING.
No column headers for time and date.... I mean, what the heck are those times and dates?
Often finds "1 results" :D
Overall : 4/5
Exceptional programme and easy to use!
