A while ago I remember downloading something that put a search field in my menu bar where I could actually type in a search and it would scan my hard drive for files. Does anyone remember what that utility was called... I wanna put a Finder Search in my menu bar sort of like spotlight because I'm in Panther. I tried PocketLight and it did't do what I wanted and it didn't work either.

Quicksilver or Launchbar.

Quicksilver is free.
Launchbar handles having the CPU maxed a bit more.

I remember an actual search field in the menu bar that I could type in. I used to use it... I don't know what ever happened to it... Does anyone know what I'm talking about. Lauchbar isn't really cutting it for me and Quicksilver is... different.

I just want simple menu bar searching. Please. Someone's gotta know.
