It can be downloaded here: http://www.dzsoft.com/favorites-search.html As a matter of fact, I later found out that this very site made mention of it and provided a review of the program, for which a link is providen on the Favorites Search website, which is why I don't understand why this article doesn't provide a link to their other article. (Well, I guess it's worth pointing out that the other article is mentioned under the Related Articles section entitled: Search Your Internet Explorer Favorites From Within IE in Vista or XP.) The link for the article on this website is this: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/search-your-internet-explorer-favorites-from-within-ie-in-vista-or-xp/ It explains in detail how to get the button to appear in your toolbar, which is the most convenient / fastest way to be able to open up the plugin to perform your search. It also mentions other things the plugin can do. Nadeem: You can use a plugin called DzSoft Favorites Search to do what you want to do, which is to search url’s / domain names.

The filename doesn't have the domain name in it, how can I search for link by the domain name? For example, "News Page" has property link of www.whatever.com/news. I want to search for this by looking for whatever. Tried the above method, with a search in contents and still nothing comes up. Anyone?

This tweak on searching in IE Favorites in Vista is excellent. My old computer (Win98SE) had a utility to search in Favs, and I was unable to find a replacement. This is SO COOL. Max THANK YOU!
