Advantages: Accurate hits. User friendly
Disadvantages: Slow search speed.

C4 had been recommended to me by a friend of my. I used it purely on reputation and was pleased with my my findings. C4 is one of those Search Engines allowing you to use questions, which can be a lot of fun. One can type in any question imaginable. eg "What is a dog".

...of hits. The site also has a free E-Mail service (.......@c4.com). This gives you 10mb of space, more than enough, and a lot more than some of the other free E-Mail sites out their.
