Is there a program that can help me search on Windows 7?

Original title: I need a program to help me search for windows 7, you can suggest something?

I just upgraded to a windows 7 machine after 7 years and more on XP. I now find search functions in windows 7 to be almost useless. I do not need, or use libraries. Indexing seems too complex. I think that I'm not the only person who feels that they need a better solution. So what program non-windows can I download which will make it easier for me to find things on my new computer, as it was on my old with XP?

Since windows 7, I had to rely more on the Google search to find solutions to deal with my problems on windows 7 I found them in the help files provided with Win 7, or the online help.

Here is a list I made based on the recommendations I've seen, all with the exception of the first freeware:

Software that can be used instead of search for Windows 7:

easexp.com/xsearch

Voidtools.com

Jam - software.com / ultrasearch

tools.tortoisesvn.net/grepWin.html

Mythicsoft.com/agentransack

locate32.cogit.NET

FreeCommander.com (a Windows Explorer alternative)
