Steve,

I also wish to disable the Vista Index function -- I never use it. It's
not
the CPU use that bothers me, it's the hard drive thrashing that's on my
mind.
Do you have a suggestion for the best way to disable indexing permanently?

A background hog? What on earth is that? It runs at a very low
priority,
and backs off as soon as you want to do anything. It uses cpu cycles
which
would otherwise go wasted, and as such is a good thing.

You've paid good money for that cpu - don't waste it by making it sit
idle
all the time!
