You could get Google Desktop.

Use Windows Explorer to search for that.

Open Windows Explorer and hit Search. The "All files and folders" option
allows you to enter words.

I don't use add-ons like that and I generally don't recommend them only
because I prefer to stick with the basics. Too many people start downloading
add-ons and inevitably something will get ******* up. (I'm a firm believer
in Murphy's Law.)
