Microsoft actually bought Lookout (I don't know if they bought the
company or just licenced the product, or something in between).

Soon after, they released Windows Desktop Search, which is Microsoft's
nice GUI on top of the Lookout search engine.

Some people dont like that MS's product is slower, but I can live with
it because the additional features, eg, document preview (also PDF
preview after installing the iFilter for Acrobat).

I have been using Lookout v1.2 in Outlook 2003 for awhile. I wonder whether
there is any new search email tool available from MS.

Thanks.
