Is there a Vista forum with more traffic than this one?

I've posted several issues here that have drawn no responses over the
past couple months. With millions of Vista users, there MUST be
somewhere online where vast numbers of users come together to get their
questions answered. Do I need a secret handshake to join such a group?

Yup. And if we told you what the handshake is, it wouldn't be a secret any
more.

No, this is the busiest newsgroup.... unless you take away the trolls, and
responders to trolls.

This is actually one of the busiest newsgroups on Usenet.

You've just discovered the secret handshake. Post something emotional and
slightly off topic and you'll get 4+ responses within 40 minutes.

No, you need to ask a question to which someone knows the answer. :-(

Now that you've got our attention, how about asking your questions again?

LOL! I mentioned a number of issues with indexing which have never been
resolved. I ended up turning off indexing. I'm still open to answers
on that subject.

OK... guilty to the latter charge. Hard to stop responding when one feels
the trolls are a detriment to the ng. But I guess I can just hold my tongue,
so to speak.
