Ouch! Search Indexer's Down, and So Are You!
If you've ever seen the "Microsoft Windows Search Indexer has stopped working" box, you know you're in for a rough day. Up to this point, the only solution has been to delete the search index and rebuild the search index. Now, though, there's a solution.
Enter KB952093 - at Least for Downloading
As reported at the My Digital Life blog (and elsewhere), Microsoft now offers a fix for this problem. You can download the update for 32-bit Vista editions here, and the 64-bit version here. Although the update is identified as KB952093, the actual KB article is not available yet. To see a link to the article (or to an error message), click the link offered on either download page.
A Better Solution Ends with "4.0"
The posting on My Digital Life suggests an even better solution - upgrade to Windows Search 4.0! Error message figure courtesy of My Digital Life
