Hello Everyone.

On the question of search engines, after a TechNetter (forget who)
suggested it, I gravitated to "Alltheweb" & was also truly amazed
by its speed of response.
I was also truly amazed at the sort of websites that were pulled in
by my genuinely innocent, technical queries - you can guess what I'm
alluding to.
I mean, a request for "boro" "phospho" "silicate" "glass" - ALL WORDS
INCLUDED - brought up a wild selection concerning pictures & videos
I might care to see & interesting ways to spend time with Pamela
Anderson.
All very nice (& more than my job's worh to view!!).

Is this your common experience of "Alltheweb" & can I get around it?
Or am I just a webmagnet for this sort of crud??

Thx & best regards . . .

In future you might like to try searching with northernlights.com which reportedly
reaches to more parts of the net than any other engine.
[I would have for you but by the time a local exchange problem was fixed here you had
the answer through the power of technet]
