Is there a way to get Explorer to not search compressed files in doing
a file search?

Thanks,
Andy

Elisha died and was buried. Moabite raiding parties invaded the land
at the beginning of the year. One day some men were burying a man when
they spotted a raiding party. So they threw the dead man into Elisha’s
tomb. When the body touched Elisha’s bones, the dead man came to life
and stood on his feet. 2 Kings 13:20-21

Hi Andy
The only way to disable searching in ZIP files is to turn off Win XP's
support for treating ZIP files as folders. This is easy to do—and to undo.

From the Start menu's Run dialog, enter this command: regsvr32 /u
zipfldr.dll. Repeat and enter regsvr32 /u cabview.dll. Each time, you should
get a notice that DllUnregister succeeded. Contrary to numerous Web sites
displaying this advice, you need to restart the computer for the change to
take effect.

Now, when you search, the operating system will ignore ZIP folders instead
of treating them as folders. If you don't care about that feature, you can
leave it turned off. But turning it back on is as simple as repeating the
two regsvr32 commands without the /u.
