Great in theory, but at least in XP it seems to do the exact opposite. I
can immediately spot when a machine has indexing turned on by how
sluggish everything is. Turn it off, and the problem goes away (once it
spends an hour changing flags on every file on the system).
Doesn't seem to be any good way to disable indexing all at once on Win7,
far as I've seen yet. I think about doing great bodily harm to the UI
team every time I look in the file mangler.
