So far, I've only been able to stop it with a good firewall. A firewall
because SearchIndexer.exe attempts to access the internet.

This is only one of the programs that Microsoft uses to hijack your
computer and transmit data elsewhere.

Microsoft has been using such programs since they figured out
that they could use online software registration as an opening to
collect data on your computer system and not just the one piece of
software that you were willingly registering at that time.

Do some research before posting this fake information, SeachIndexer does not
do what you have just stated.

Ok "searchindexer.exe" is not a virus and it is a Windows program. You
can remove it by uninstalling "Windows Search 4.0".

This program just indexes files on your computer so if you search for
them in the future it will be a quicker search.

Good luck. Hope this helps.
