I sent the foolowing message to Microsoft -
Message: Microsoft removed the Search button from the Start panel for Vista
in SP1. This is a great disservice for your users. You may believe the
alternate approaches are sufficient, but you are SO VERY WRONG when it comes
to the average user. I do not care what your reasons or excuse are, you are
still WRONG and it was a thoughtless mistake.You should correct this change
immediately with a "fix" or whatever is necessary if you really want to be of
service to your users.

You do not need to know the reply because it completely missed the point of
the message.

QUESTION: Does anyone know how I might be able to restore the Search
function to the Staart Panel? I understand there is a way but I do not know
it. I also have been told that there is a piece of software that will do the
job.
