    And you're not afraid to use them.  Use Google with the site: selector until Live Search figures out how to index these forums.

    Live Search with the site: selector works as well.



    The problem is with the search from within the forums.

     The forums search actually uses Live search. The problem (at least, as of last week) is that Live hadn't crawled these forums (for various reasons relating to Live that I don't fully understand) and so our search was, in effect, useless. It's my understanding that as of now, Live should have made great progress with it's crawl, but I don't know what % of the forums or how far behind it is...

     Could you please explain how to do this with either Live Search or Google? I'm trying to search a particular forum (Windows 7 Beta) for a particular keyword (XBOX) and the search returns over 70 million hits from every possible website.

    Thanks.
