It suited my needs and I put it out here people who may want to use it them selves. Also provided the source so it could be modified. Dan,

As Bill Clinton might say! I guess it depends what like means. Put this on a glass background in a vista app and see what happens.... It's not good.

I have put a lot of effort into optimizing for VIsta and XP but I have been reluctant to actually use Vista APIs because I don't want to have to write too much different code for different platforms. I will look at this soon--thanks! Wow, this looks really interesting.

Other then the magnifying glass icon being at the other side of the box, this is the same as what Apple has had in Safari for at least the last 3 years. In addition to that, their magnifying glass is clickable to display a list of recent searches. It's nice to see things like this coming to Windows though. Makes for a nicer user experience :-) Vista-like?
