Thanks!

I was finally able to get rid of that!

I'll just use google desktop. It works great and doesn't crash my
computer like Windows Desktop Search.

Disable Instant Search

To not get prompted to download the Windows Desktop Search component, do the
following:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click Other, and then click Advanced Options.
3. Under General settings, clear the Show prompts to enable Instant
Search check box.

Note This check box does not appear if your computer runs Windows
Vista or if your computer runs Microsoft Windows XP and you have already
installed the Windows Desktop Search component.

To disable Instant Search if the Windows Desktop Search components are
already installed on your computer, clear the check boxes under Index
messages in these data files in the Search Options dialog box. For more
information, see Change the Instant Search options. Clearing the check boxes
disables search functionality, but does not remove the Instant Search pane.

Important Disabling Instant Search prevents you from using the Windows
Desktop Search query syntax. You can, however, use Advanced Find as in
earlier versions of Outlook. To use Advanced Find, on the Tools menu, point
to Instant Search, and then click Advanced Find, or just press CTRL+SHIFT+F.

I have office 2007, and I tried installing the "Instant Search", which
is really just windows Desktop search, and it totally screwed up my
computer.

It took me a few hours and a couple trips in safe mode to remove it.

So now I have the "Click here to enable Instant Search" wasting space
on my screen.

Is there no way to remove this??

If you are seeking a desktop search tool which grants you, the user, complete
control, and which stores your data ONLY on your local PC, not communicating
anything to any outside source, then give Copernic Desktop Search a try.
It's 100% free for non-commercial home use. The web site is
http://www.copernic.com/en/products/desktop-search/ . You can set CPU
priority and control how indexing is done and where the index is maintained.
Impact on the system is minimal.

I have not used Copernic in a long time but I agree that it is a sweet little program.
