Whenever I try to utilize the Windows XP Search for Files
program, it hangs as soon as I hit the Search button.
Any ideas on how to rectify this?
 
Log on to the computer by using an account with administrator permissions
Click Start, click Run, type %systemroot%\inf, and then click OK
Locate the Srchasst.inf file
Right-click the Srchasst.inf file, and then click Install.
This reinstalls the files that Search Companion uses
