Not exactly the answer you're looking for, but I use Copernic for my
desktop search.  I find the web search features annoying, so I've
turned them off so it only searches my desktop, a few network folders,
and my outlook mail.

Best of all, it indexes, so the search is instant.  You can easily add
extensions for indexing, though .java, etc, seem to be indexed by
default.
