Easiest way to locate the installers

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I have put in storage many installers (exe and zip) on CDs for later use. It
is very difficult to find the required files when necessary. For example
"AdbeRdr60_enu_full.exe" is the executable file for Adobe Acrobat reader.
But when you search with the media cataloging tool (Cathy) you have to enter
atleast "adbe" to find the file. What is the easiest way? Is it okay
changing the Executable file's name to "AdobeAcrobatReader6.0.exe"? Or is
there any other way?

Thanks for any replies

John
