"Search Everywhere" Error

VISTA is generating a strange error when I click "Search Everywhere" from the
search box:

Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have
the appropriate permissions to access the item.

Has anyone ever seen this error with the "Seach Everywhere" feature?

Did you enter what you want to search for ?? Example being ole.dll or a Specific file or folder

Click Start - Default Programs - Set your default programs
Select "Windows Search Explorer"
Click "Set this program as default" and click OK.
