Google API Search Tool is a simple but powerful Windows software tool for searching Google. It is completely free and is not a commercial product.

Google doesn't approve of people using automated software tools to search. However Google recently announced the beta release of a developer API that allows their database of 2 billion documents to be searched using software developed for that purpose.

Google API Search Tool uses the Google web service API to perform the searches. It also has a number of features that make it a very powerful desktop search tool.
