uninstalling Zip Folders ... and turning search back into 2000 mode

whoa whoa whoa.

Do you mean as in not searching zips when doing a plain old file search? If so, please please please tell me how. I looked long and hard to get around this stupid arrangement. It takes somewhere around 3 hours to search my PC for a file at the moment.

If so is it the uninstall of zip folder support that actually fixes the problem?

edit: ooops I got so excited about this I replied before I even read the rest of the thread.
