I have an excuse.  Will verity index a site that makes extensive use of 
frames?  nope. it fails at the first FRAMESET tag and doesn't pick up 
again until the end one.  Not a problem for people who use a NO FRAMESET 
tag, but we don't (big site everyone uses NETSCAPE so no need).  The 
ONLY type of search/index engine we have found to work is one which 
actually searchs the text of each page in a specified directory.

BTW we use microsofts IIS on an ALPHA box
