I mistakenly installed Windows Desktop Search. This was a mistake. How do I
get rid of it. It doesn't appear in Add/Remove Programs. Doing a Google
search yields nothing about how to uninstall it.

Anyone have any experiance with it?

Also since I have been using it I have been getting "Insufficient System
Resources..." messages quite regularly.

Thanks for the help, the article applied to an older version of Desktop
Search but I extrapolated it to the current version.

The article said to remove it via Add/Remove programs but for some reason it
did not appear.

Add and remove programs try checking [ ] Show Updates.

I did and it wasn't there.

In add/remove do a sort by name and look for Windows Desktop Search
