Yeah, I have the same problem. There are lots of ready-made search 
solutions out there, and I hope the list admins eventually adopt one of 
them. In the meantime, I do my searches "off-line". I downloaded all the 
archives to my computer and then installed WinGrep 
(http://www.wingrep.com/). As the name suggests, it allows you to use 
regular expressions. Furthermore, it has a nice graphical interface that 
shows you not only the file hits, but also a few words of context 
surrounding the matched phrase. A must-have for Windows users.

Of course Linux users are probably laughing at us, and I can't say I 
blame them.
