Yes, it's feasibly possible, but no effort has been made to develop this feature. Something you might try is mapping the URL to a drive in your computer (Q:) then using NTFS junction points to also map that drive to the "localsearches" folder. Do this through the "Computer Management" MMC and select the "Disk Management" plugin. Then select the drive, right click on the drive and select "change drive letter and path" then "add" and "mount in an ntfs folder" and browse to the EMPTY "localsearches" folder, click "ok". And yes, this will work... But it would be quite a bit more work than simply scheduling a download of that remote folder every "x" hours or once a day or something. That's much easier and doesn't require 1) NT-based OS, 2) NTFS primary partition, 3) digging through the guts of your system configuration. Regards, Shawn K.
