Because he wants his software to run on PCs without a desktop search?
Anyways, why not just package the desktop search with your spyware? Oops, shouldn't give them ideas...
I'm a gamer, so I worry about these things, too. Keep in mind, this makes the NTFS filesystem much better than FAT32, as it's a journaling filesystem.
Journaling filesystems keep a running log of everything that changes on the disk. This is why you don't need to run scandisk as often.
Google Desktop monitors the filesystem's log and only reads files that have been modified. So, after the initial crawl, it really doesn't use a ton of disk I/O. Indexing Service, and probably the rest, also do this, so they aren't that bad.
Keep in mind that if you are using FAT32, you lose much of this speed and it may eat up lots of resources.
That's just so not true. When you install a good desktop search tool, it's like installing a spyware honeypot
So is running windows.
If spyware wants to search your computer, it's not really going to care if it takes a few minutes or a few hours. They wait weeks for you to get infected, anyways.
Yeah, I mean, you can change text size fine, but the graphics that people use for navigation systems on websites are too tiny to read.
I suppose that's one advantage Opera has over Firefox. Opera has page magnification instead of basefont increase/decrease.
I don't know the technical details, but I can't imaging that it'd affect Opera or Firefox. The article says it's an HTML parser error, and neither of those browsers use the IE HTML parser.

Gamesurge is #5 in the top 10 networks and has no illegal content at all. Don't they factor in or were they skipped over?

And *.log file support for mIRC chats.
Microsoft doesn't agree, or they wouldn't have created one of these neat services.

Indexing Service only runs when your PC is inactive.
Right. Google's a slow poke. It's been on their to-do list for ages.

But they don't seem to be infecting me...
Doesn't Microsoft make a router/firewall?
