There are some issues with search and a few other links on the main 
page.  I think they're left-overs from the most recent system crash but 
Scott can probably give more details.

Search seems to work as it always did if you don't specify a forum.  
Another search option is to try the custom Google search engine for IWeThey:

http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=006978452673906630972%3A_5xhnlvpsn4

It seems to miss some things too, but sometimes it's a good option from 
the IWT search.

HTH.

Cheers,
Scott.
