Default PHP Search Script recommendations?

Folks,

Can anyone recommend a script which will add a search capability to my
site pls?

I need one which will work with PHP version 4.3.2 which has
register_globals set to OFF by my ISP and which does NOT require a
database.

I am currently using one which was written by Tim Henderson
(http://web-bureau.com) which is excellent apart from it being a little
slow as it doesn't use any indexing files. There is also one at
warpedweb.net but I can't get it to work with 4.3.2 and emails to
support bounce :(

Cheers

My account does not include access to a database. The routines I have
already mentioned use flat files and result in *dramatic* performance
improvements it's just that they don't work with the version of PHP on
my ISP's servers. I need one which uses flat files but will work with
register_globals set to OFF. Thanks.

Thanks looks good (http://www.htdig.org/) but from what I can gather, I
would need a host which is Unix based and mine is NT based :(
