MeauxSoft: Free Search Tool for Your Hard Drive
July 4, 2011
“Mo-Search Puts Your Computer’s Data at Your Fingertips,” offers MeauxSoft. Version 4.0.4 of Mo-Search was just released. It and earlier versions can be downloaded from this page. Though the downloads are free, MeauxSoft suggests a donation if you find the tool useful.
Regarding the new version, the write-up lists the advances:
Supports Windows XP and later. Changes include: low overhead AutoIndex, AutoUpdate, new database engine (SQLCE), faster indexing and searching, plus many other bug fixes, optimizations and improvements.
The company boasts that Mo-Search is free of spyware and adware. That’s not a given?
It’s easy to use, providing results that are ranked and sorted. Unlike competitors’ free products, this application allows searching networked drives. Important, that.
Ease of use is enhanced with a file viewer that highlights matches without launching a separate app. Other features such as quick viewing of a file within the application, a find duplicates function, and a point and click interface are useful touches.
