You might have skipped right over this in the latest Rootsweb Review: "ROOTSWEB INTRODUCES GENSEEKER, a new search engine that accesses almost all sites at RootsWeb and many genealogical sites elsewhere on the Web. These searches are more than three times faster than they were before we upgraded the CPU and disk subsystem. Access GenSeeker at <http://seeker.rootsweb.com/>. The amount of material accessed by GenSeeker is huge and will grow quickly as this search engine indexes an ever-increasing number of Web sites. Try GenSeeker often to find new items of interest. GenSeeker is a good example of your contributions at work to make free genealogical data accessible on the Web." Try it! It is *blazingly* fast, and I got hits for even the rarest of my surnames (Daiber, Goosic), which I never found *anywhere* on the web before. (Hint: with those rare names, use "any" instead of "all.")
