i recently installed the google desktop search.
my hard disk has more than a lakh files but the google desktop search has indexed only 48 files. it does not index any file even when my system is idle (i tried it)

Well desktop searched and indexes a limited nos files inclusing .doc, .txt, .html ..other office files ..maybe thats why there are only 48 files indexed..
