is a Web search utility designed to query multiple search-engines with your complex search criteria, and directly verify the resulting links and their content.
In depth
A closer look at SearchLight
SearchLight submits your primary search criteria to up to ten search engines, retrieves the Web addresses, sorts them, and removes duplicates. It then visits each site to verify that they actually exist and that their content does indeed match your search criteria. The program searches for secondary criteria 'live' on each of the returned sites, and filters out those sites that contain information you definitely do not want. SearchLight then compiles an HTML or text format list of links that truly meet your search requirements. It can save or print the results of any search (up to 1900 selectable URLs) along with criteria used in the search. Additional features include network proxy support, selectable wait time, selectable browser, the ability to search on all or specific words, and the ability to save multiple search criteria for later use.
