Default WEIRD Forum behavior

Not sure why but if you search for one of my posts by "word search", it wont come up. But if you search by author, it will.

Try searching for "firefox theme", which should return this link: Harley Davidson Firefox Theme OFFER!
But note that link doesn't come up. Why?? Heck, you can even search for "After many attempts to update my HD theme" (text copied from the BODY) and it still wont come up.

Is there something being filtered with this post?

Sometimes the only thing itll search for is the wrong search, and then I have to go back and search the search for a new search and the old search gets in the way. Too complicated so I quit the search.

Yeah, it's just one of the things that's messed up right now. The good news is you can ask a question that's been answered 1,000 times and no one can screw with ya, get my drift? &nbsp\\;

Mmm... so I have another question: "Is there something being filtered with this post?"
jk

AND YET ANOTHER thing happening in this forum is the escaping in the HTML encoding/decoding process not working properly... notice all the slashes? \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
