Greetings from LeonSprings,Texas USofA,

Have done searches for ARP without any results, "ARP poisoning" same thingy, "ARP cache poisoning" same thingy, ARP cache poisoning produced two pages of threads. Why not any of my other searches not producing any results? Several of the messages seen on just the first page had entries that should have shown some results even for the simple ARP yet the search gave No results found.

Thank you for reading my inquiry,

The integrated vBulletin search is limited. For one thing, by default, 3 letter words are not indexed in it. Some short words are indexed because we added them as exceptions to be searchable. However, for each one like that we add, there is additional overhead. ARP is not a searchable word here.

See this thread regarding search limitations and other ways to search these forums:
