When this is the first item returned by a Google search for "click here to enable instant search", you have to know just how badly hated the feature must be! Thanks for the info! I no longer have to be wary of accidentally clicking on the prompt -- I allowed Instant Search to be installed when our workplace was upgraded to Office 2007, and regretted it within a matter of days; I uninstalled it but was frustrated by the prompt remaining in Outlook -- thanks again for showing me how to get rid of it! Instant Serach is such a resource hog, and I found the results less useful than the old style folder search (which I was more than happy to return to). Best regards, Rob
