Thanks Sean.  First, I've had no problem installing or indexing.  The problems
come with searching for specific content.

It seems that the first search returns a seemingly correct result set (meaning
that the list in the result set had the criteria).  However, when I revised the
criteria (either to narrow the result set, or to get a completely different
result set) I got the original (first) result set instead.  Any change in
criteria yielded the same (large) result set.

Have you had that problem?

Ron
