How to search this topic for words not next to each other?

[lugnut]

Even using advanced search on 2 or more words, it only spits out a result if the words are next to each other.
There must be a way but I'm not finding a description of how to do it...

Should've belonged in feedback section.

I don't see the link to notify moderators, but just wait until they move the topic to the correct forum.

Use google, and specify it to only search this forum.

You could use Google, but all you need to do it use the word 'and' in your search criteria. As an example, if you type 'spits words' (without quotes) you won't find anything, but if you type 'spits and words' (without quotes) you will find your post (as well as another one).

Ah! Thank you very much! That was the missing bit of info I needed.

It doesn't appear that Google does a full index (or maybe a full index is not done very frequently), and plus you can't specify the Home Security sub-forum so you have to weed through a lot of things that aren't of interest.
