MoRU was designed not just as a searching tool, but as a utility that keeps recently used documents and applications right at your fingertips. All searches in MoRU are automatically sorted according to when each items was most recently modified, opened, or created, which means that items that you have worked on recently will be right at the top of the search results.

MoRU CommentaryAbandonware - Version: 2.1, 10/19/2008 10:46AM PST

Nice looking website, nice looking product but it's abandonware at this point.

All questions in forum have been left unanswered for the last year. No updates.

HoudahSpot is hideous but it works.

MoRU CommentaryNow named FileSpot - Version: 1.3.5, 9/19/2007 10:43AM PST

I can't explain why VersionTracker does not list FileSpot, but MoRU has evolved into FileSpot. Go to the MoRU site, and you will be redirected. MacUpdate has it listed properly.

That said, FileSpot is pretty nice, but a bit unstable on my MacBook Pro. MoRU was sorta useful, but not enough for me to purchase it. That's just me. I can see where others would LOVE this thing.
