Instant Search encountered a problem ...

My Instant search is not working. Vista + Outlook 2007.

Yesterday it was working for my main exchange/offline mailbox, but it would
not pull any results for any of the PST files I also have opened.

I ended up deleting the config/data folders to perhaps clear a corruption
issue since reindexing also did not fix it. That lead me to an issue
preventing the indexing service failing to start afterwards.

After following some forum posts on that issue I finally got the indexer
running again, and specifically excluded all office/outlook folders from
being indexed. I then enabled each PST one by one and waited until the index
rebuild completed.

After that was done, I tried to search and now I get an error:
Instant Search encountered a problem while trying to display search results.
Modifying your query may resolve this problem.

I can't for the life of me figure out what this is. I can't even find any
forums that cite this specific issue. Is this something new?

Can anyone help?!
