Run Disk Clean up to clear out any temporary files.
 
Hello,

How does one clear the search results in Vista? I have a lot of old deleted
files that still show up.

Thanks much..

Delete a File or Folder. Locate the file or folder by using Windows
Explorer.(Right-click start and choose Explore)
In the resulting Windows Exploer window, right-click the file or
folder that you want to delete and choose Delete.
In the resutling dialog box click Yes to delete the file.

When you delete a file or folder in Winndows Vista, its not really
gone. Its removed to the Recyle Bin.Windows Vista periodically purges
odler files from this folder, but you might still be able to retreve
recently deleted fiels and folders from it.To try to resotre a deleted
file or folder, double-click the Recyle Bin icon on the desktop.Right-
click the file or folder and choose Restore.Windows Vista restores the
file to wherever it was when you deleted it.

Instead of right-clicking and chooseing Delet from the menu that
appears you can clikc the Delte key on your keyboard.
 
Start - Control Panel - Indexing Options
Advanced - Rebuild

This will rebuild the search index, and will take a while.

vista search indexing is a total disaster

Vista is a good example of what OS developers should avoid.

Try installing Vista, then report back.
Otherwise, just STFU!
