Can't get search to work on this forum...tried to search on "firefox" and "Firefox" (no quotes used) and got nothing!

Try increasing the number of days to about 120 or 200.
Still, it depends if the term you search for has been discussed.

I tried "firefox" with the default 7 days and got 1 hit --your post.

Increased days to 120 and got 10 hits.

Thanks Richard...a feature I never noticed. I tend to have tunnel vision.
