Thanks, but I found ciadv.msc some time ago (should have mentioned that).
There was a brief discussion here a week or so ago when I said I would like
something with less mouse clicks, and I started investigating the IIS4 RK
srch.exe that Rich mentioned.

It was part of my general investigation of searching that I wanted to see
why the damn Windows Search didn't use the index. You can actually use all
those {at} keywords if you start the search with an exclamation mark (which
also causes it to use the index).
