Microsoft launches desktop search tool

Mircosoft released the finalized version of its desktop search tool, taking aim at Google Inc. and other rivals in the increasingly competitive search market.

Google, which became the Web's top search engine after its debut in 1998, was the first major search company to roll out a test version. Search rival Yahoo Inc. released its test, or beta, desktop search tool in January.

While Google, Yahoo and Microsoft are competing on the Windows desktop, Apple Computer Inc. has also beefed up search capabilities for its Macintosh computer operating system.

Microsoft's new desktop search, which can be downloaded from http://desktop.msn.com, can also be accessed from the Internet Explorer Web browser, the Outlook e-mail and contacts program or from the Windows desktop.
