Search Program on My Computer Isnt

Hi Everyone;

For several months now I have been having problems with my windows search on
this home edition.

Every time I got to search anything on this computer it starts but after a
few minutes it comes up saying error and boots me off search. It is getting
annoying trying to find things.

As I can usually only get about four results then booted off. Can anyone
help me please?
