About using a search engine to search recovery points
Norton Ghost supports the use of Google Desktop for searching for file names
that are contained in recovery points.
When a backup runs, Norton Ghost generates a catalog of all of the files that are
included in the recovery point. Google Desktop can then use the catalog to generate
an index of the files that are contained in each recovery point.
When you enable search engine support, Norton Ghost creates a catalog of all of
the files that are contained in a recovery point. Search engines like Google Desktop
use the catalog file generate an index. You can then search for files by name.
Google Desktop does not index the content of files. It only indexes the file names.
