I wasn't able to click that, or anything else. I couldn't click the X, or
File, Exit, etc - the search was completing tying up the application which
is why I am asking this question here.

The x to the right of the search field should do it.

I was doing a simple search in Outlook, it didn't find it in the Inbox,
so I told it to "Try searching in all mail items". After five minutes I
gave up but couldn't find any way to cancel the search. Not CTRL C, CTRL
Break, escape, clicking anywhere on the Outllok window, etc. I ending up
killing it in Task manager.

What is the correct way to kill a search in progress in Outlook 2007?
