Yep, that did the trick.

Thanks Brendan.

You need to add a check in your search results page to see if the key is 
a farcry object or external link.

Something like this should do the trick:

<!--- check for extFile or farcry object --->
<cfif left(key,2) eq "\\">
        <a 
href="#application.url.webroot#/download.cfm?extFile=#key#">#qResults.title#</a>
<cfelse>
        <!--- farcry object --->
        <a href="#application.url.conjurer#?objectid=#key#">#qResults.title#</a>
</cfif>
