You have to index the files. It will take sometime for it to actually index everything.

No, not everyday. It will run when the PC is idle. For the first time, when you search something it might not find all, because it is still building the index.

I don't think so.
I mean, there are indexed vs. non-indexed searches in XP and Vista.

Vista doesn't require it, because it already has it!
