Ken, Unfortunately, the built-in search web parts do not support running a "saved query" which would have allowed you to do what you want (which is basically running the same search every time a user browses to the page).
You will have to develop a custom webpart that uses the search interface to do so. I did this in my current project, but I cannot share the code (customer IP). If you are interested and if you have the web part skills, ping me and I will point you in the right direction.

Currently I have our SharePoint setup so that it syncs all user profile information with Active Directory, then rather than create an access permission account I have added our "All Staff" AD security group as Home Members in SharePoint. Then it has all their info when searching for staff, gives them access when they login (using their own profile) but with access permissions controlled Org wide. Not sure if that is the correct way to do it...but that's how I have it setup. So unfortunately that user list won't work unless I specifically add all users as SharePoint users I guess?

At first glance it looked like just the ticket for mass deleting unwanted groups from imported sites. But, alas, the checkbox column has no associated actions! Anyways, I did a little research on this and it appears that it's quite a good base for a company directory page.

I realise you can search, but some people aren't smart enough to even do that :P. I want to have a page / site which will list all staff in the directory and also be able to maybe filter by site / department (this is all synced with Active Directory).
