Yahoo! is set to push its Desktop Search program into general availability on Wednesday.

Yahoo! Desktop Search includes a new feature called LiveWords, which allows people to highlight text within documents and click a button to search for those words in other documents on their hard drive.

The free program searches emails, attachments, Word documents, music files, images, video, Yahoo! address book entries and Yahoo! Messenger archives.

Yahoo! Desktop Search, released in beta in January, competes with similar products from Google and MSN.
