[ILUG] search box

	I tried a few searches, the most commonly found match was "arse",
really reinforcing the fact that this is an IRISH users group. "can't be
arsed", "java me arse" or the ultimate from kate: "May their arse hairs turn
to the hammers of hell, and beat the bollox out of them" ... searching for
"me arse" doesn't come up with anything, so maybe my brother was right in
saying I couldn't find me arse with both hands and a search engine . ... . 

	It's very fast for single word searches, however: if you search for
multiple words (having selected "ALL"), it brings back pages that match the
first word. (search was ALL "problems with"). In the "me arse" sample above
only "me" was searched for by the page thingy, and curiously returns nothing
.... although I'm sure you can find "me" in quite a few mails.
