2008-10-31 02:23:45 Andrea Cimitan description I can't get relevance to work. If I type "ff" the first result I get is openoffice, but I've launched firefox thousands of time and it is still the fourth result. What's going on? I can't get relevance to work. If I type "ff" the first result I get is openoffice, but I've launched firefox thousands of time and it is still the fourth result. Firefox gains one position (fspot) but not openoffice, maybe the "ff" of openo"ff"ice it's too important? What's going on?
