"Everything" is an administrative tool that locates files and folders by filename instantly for Windows.
Unlike Windows search "Everything" initially displays every file and folder on your computer (hence the name "Everything").
You type in a search filter to limit what files and folders are displayed.
"Everything" only uses file and folder names and generally takes a few seconds to build its database.
A fresh install of Windows XP SP2 (about 20,000 files) will take about 1 second to index.
1,000,000 files will take about 1 minute.

I "cannot" live without this program near explorer, it is super
This is not completely right: Save your emails as eml-files and Everything will find it.
A blazingly fast and lightweight app that gives immediate results. Suitable for "normal" users but also very interesting for "power users" via the (optional) complex search syntax and modifiers. Especially useful for anyone working with large amounts of files regularly. Once you get the hang of it, it actually replaces several other apps/tools. I do recommend you run it as a service, not as administrator, for security and privacy reasons.
