Search Giant, Google Inc., on Monday formally introduced Google Desktop Search, a free downloadable application that enables users to search for information on their own computers, The free desktop tool, which has been in beta testing since October, allows users to search computer files, e-mail, America Online instant messages, the full text of Web page history and PDF files, as well as information stored with music, image and video files.

The company said the product also includes support for the Firefox and Netscape browsers, Thunderbird and Netscape e-mail, and Chinese and Korean interfaces. Users also can use the search function to recover accidentally deleted or misplaced information.
