Google Desktop is an application that allows you to search your files, music and other media, email, chats, and viewed webpages.
When you look at a web page, read an email, open or edit a file, or have an AIM chat, Google Desktop indexes that item and copies the item's content into its cache, so that you'll be able to find long-finished chats and older versions of files and web pages.
Google Desktop runs on computers using Windows 2000 (Service Pack 3 or above) or Windows XP, and Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or above. It requires 1 gigabyte (Gb) of space available on your hard drive. For best performance, we recommend at least 128 Mb RAM and a 400MHz or faster Pentium processor.
