This isn't isolated.  At home where I've added all the latest Sourceforge CVS files, I have the file "disabledsearches.txt".  But here at work, I only installed the latest beta.  I have do not have the txt file, and it doesn't get written if I uncheck a box.
 
Looking at the folder, if memory serves there was an additional .js file added (disabledsearches.js or something like that?).  But it appears that file is not being distributed with the latest release.

The idea is to be able to inhibit loading countless search forms,
functions, variables etc that arent needed or wanted by the
user.   We currently have ~190 searches in the searches directory.
If I only want or use 60 of them, why load all 190?..   The idea of
disabling the searches was aimed at reducing the needless
overhead.

Hmmmm..  something isnt working right for you.
Disabled searches are recorded in the disabledsearches.txt
file and the list is generated automatically by the toolbar and
implemented when the toolbar is loaded or refreshed. Disabled
searches should stay disabled until enabled again...
