Not search inside ZIP files

How can I make Windows Explorer search a folder and its subfolders
but *not* search inside any ZIP files?

Am using XP Pro.

Click to expand...


In the search bar find Advance options and unselect find in
zip files.
Click to expand...


I do not see that option when I click the Advanced button in the
search panel.

What sort of display options do I need to select to be able to see
this? Classic or XP or something else?
