If at all, because even after a dozen clicks many file types are still not searched. FileSeek is a lifesaver! But now searches return duplicate hits for things beneath junctions, because c:\documents and settings is a junction to c:\users. This also causes searches to take longer because it searches a lot of data twice.
It would be great if there were and option in Fileseek to exclude searching down junction paths.
