Users of the Enterprise version of Windows Desktop Search can now download an updated version:

WDS Enterprise Download page

The KB article has been updated as well.

The new build can be installed over the previous Enterprise release. As before, this will not upgrade the MSN Toolbar + WDS consumer release. This is for users of the Enterprise version only.

The changes from build 2057 to build 2083 are:

-Fixed isolated cases where certain Outlook e-mail messages would not be indexed. The affected messages are quite random and the problem may impact some users significantly and others not at all.

-Fixed an issue where the WDS “Search Pane” in Windows XP/2003 would not scope to the current folder when the “Search” button is pressed inside an Explorer window.

-Fixed an issue related to web search queries not being encoded correctly for some East Asian language users.

Installing this update will cause the index to be rebuilt. If you haven’t been affected by these issues then upgrading is unnecessary.
