    Yup, try this search for an example:

    Chargen +Exploit +19

    Note the use of plus signs, Google took the Chargen search, reduced it to only those which had Exploit also, then took that result and showed those which also had 19 on first results set page. Pluses tell Google to drill into first results, using what is after each plus as an extra inclusive parm.

    I could have used

    "Chargen Exploit" +19
    also, but some of the results would have been dropped that way.

    Search also:

    Fyodor's +Exploit

    ONE FURTHER piece of advise:

    Click the cached links under results, do not go to all sites that pop up. Some can feed things you do not want. OR, search from a Linux box or live Linux or Linspire Live CD boot of a computer for Exploit info hunts. Linux cannot run most of the junk fed, has no Windows registry to record them in, etc. Now you know why 95% of my surfing is from a Linux box, using Mozilla 1.7.
