The way the search mechanism is disabled is that there is
no way to enter search terms. The left side pane of the
dialog box is grey. You can't select a drive to search,
etc. Thank you.
 
Hi Phillip,

Try this: Click Start | Run and type "regsvr32 /i
c:\windows\srchasst\srchui.dll"

If this did not help,
1. Log on to the computer by using an account with administrator
permissions.
2. Click Start, click Run, type %systemroot%\inf, and then click OK.
3. Locate the Srchasst.inf file.
4. Right-click the Srchasst.inf file, and then click Install. This
reinstalls the files that Search Companion uses.

NOTE: If you are prompted for the location of msgr3en.dll and your computer
came with Windows XP preinstalled, it is likely to be at C:\Windows\i386.
Type C:\Windows\i386 into the Copy Files From dialog and press OK.

Method 2:
Download a fix from:
