Search link (present in the right-hand side of the Start menu) is removed when you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1. Also, the Search context menu item is removed.

There are other ways to launch search. For more information, read this article.

If you wish to restore the Start menu Search link, check this post for a registry edit.

open the start menu and start typing... you'll find as you type.... advanced
syntax is also avaible (read the "Help and Support" for examples).
