First let me say, that the method to find "unsecured" folders on the net via Google (which I am using for this Bookmarklets) was, as far as I know, discovered by the guy behind breakingwindows.com in 2004. Read the original post. Recently I found lot's of webpages, claiming they have discovered this, BUT THEY HAVEN'T !
These bookmarklets were done before the "Goolge multimedia search device" (below). They are still handy, because you can drag the links into the link toolbar of your browser.
The bookmarklet should work for later versions of Internet Explorer, but may not work for other browsers.
To keep the bookmarklet, Add it to your Bookmarks or Favorites IE Tip:
This is a tip for the Mozilla/Firefox users. Should work the same for IE but I don't know. It doesn't improve the search results, but it makes the handling of the bookmark a little bit easier. Here it is:
Save the bookmark as one of your bookmarks in your bookmarkfolder. Right-click it -> Properties ->Keyword
Now enter something short like "mp3" (no quotes). Then enter "mp3" (no quotes) in the adress line of your browser. The "bookmarklet" should appear now. Ofcourse you can keep the bookmarklet in your link bar, but my linkbar is cluttered with links allready and space in this bar is very valuable Audio and Video Search
Those bookmarklets do a Google search for Audio and Video files at the same time. A Audio and Video Search Bookmarklet Firefox version
A audio and video Search Bookmarklet IE Version
GOOGLE POWERED MULTIMEDIA SEARCH
Info:
For some reason, this tool is not workin 100%. Everytime I do a search, all I see is a standard google start page. But when I hit the back button of my browser (Firefox) and do he search again, everything works fine.
Supported files:
Audio: mp3, wav, ogg, shn and flac
Video: avi, mpeg, mpg, mov
Archive: zip, rar, tar and gz
Torrent
Iso Images: iso, bin, nrg and cue

I guess it works for Firefox since this browser allows you to configure it either after IE or Opera. I personally use Opera whenever I enter my small business funding site and works very good on a lot of features. Do you happen to know something about this bookmarklet on Opera, please?
