"The search term you specified (dvd) is under the minimum word length (4) and therefore will not be found. Please make this term longer. "

"the" is probably automatically dropped from any searches.

What would be so wrong about bringing down the minimum to 3? It would make searching MUCH easier. 1-2 letter words make sense to be unsearchable... but 3 doesn't seem out of line.

i believe this was mentioned before that there is a massive difference in the index for 3 letters as opposed to 4
