If you unzip any tar file with Winzip- Be sure when you FTP any file NOT ending with jpg or gif to your UNIX Server- that you move them as ASCII and not as Binary. THIS IS ESSENTIAL and the largest source of installation failures! For smaller sites, a reasonably easy search engine. By default, this script searches all pages, but you can tell it what not to search.

After downloading to your PC, FTP it as binary to a temp directory on your unix server. Here it is! A really great counter and clock script just like the big sites use. Best of all, it is free. This program is great, but be forwarned, you need to read the instructions ahead of time and know the answers to important questions, such as your site's IP address. Everyone has been asking me to find a good counter that does not require SSI, so here is a great one! The installation does not lend itself to e-mail handholding, so please try to figure it out. ;->

One is used to create an index file, and the second is the actual user search script. You do have to rebuild the index after updating your site to keep it current, but it is very fast. This is the search engine used on this site.
