Abstract: Describes 4 search engines for the Internet: infoMarket Search; Yahoo and OpenText; Lycos Spider; and WebCompass. InfoMarket Search retrieves data from Web pages and information providers such as Disclosure, Information Access Company and Cambridge Scientific Abstracts. It is able to search millions of Web pages in under five seconds. Automated 'crawlers' index the complete text of Web documents. Yahoo enables users to search for specific words and phrases and conduct multilevel Boolean and weighted searches. Lycos spider offers support for HotJava and indexes 91% of the Web. WebCompass polls multiple search engines such as Lycos and InfoSeek for relevant Web pages. A personalized index of topics may be built and retrieved data stored in a format based on Microsoft Access 2.0
