Windows Search Indexing will not index

When I go to indexing options only 17 objects are indexed even though I've
been using the computer for hours. I tried to do a rebuild but nothing is
happening. For instance, in Outlook the search is not working and it says I
have 9850 objects still to index. Any idea how to fix this? I had to do a
system repair with the repair DVD earlier on. TIA
 
In Indexing Options, have you tried clicking on
Modify and place a check next to Outlook and
then click OK?

Under indexing options, Outlook is listed as one of the locations along with
Users Folder and two others to index.

I am away from the computer sometimes and it says only 27 items indexed
under indexing options.

FOR SOME PEOPLE INDEXING/SEARCH DOES NOT WORK WITH VISTA. PERIOD.

Microsoft REFUSES to investigate why Vista's search DOES NOT WORK for
everyone until someone with a BILLION dollars cares.

Microsoft doesn't care about us small people for whom Vista's search WILL
NOT WORK.

Vista search may work for you, but I need a 3rd party tool to search files
in Vista. I want XP back.
