- DjLizard : @Titotinton: The way this economy is going, I could definitely use any donation and it would be most appreciated. I have begun working on Dial-a-fix again and hope to be able to release a new version in the distant future.
- Tarun : @Titotinton: Any amount you can spare DjLizard is always helpful. People who show appreciation by donating help keep developers interested and motivated. It shows an active interest in their product.
- Tarun : @biff: 7 is going to be a lot like Vista, so DAF should be able to work with it without any major issues. But that's speculation right now.

I just stumbled across something astonishing. A query so simple, yet so elegant...
Just a few minutes ago, I discovered that if I type:
*-*
or
*.* - [Thanks ToastyX!]
in the query box at google, I can search the entire internet.
But seriously — the results are crazy. See for yourself! : http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%2B*-*&btnG=Search
Seems it works on froogle, too.
Everything is highlighted. All of your terms have been matched!
[See also: http://www.google.com/search?q=%2B*-*&hl=en&lr=&start=4120000000&sa=N (notice the number overflow - 1073741824]
Now for my next questions: what determines the order? Where are these results being pulled from? Why this order?
