I started this project so that Internet users could really understand that the Internet is a lot more than just the results they get from search engines. I decided to design and develop a Windows based application that would allow users to query the web like normal but get very different results. The deep web or Deepnet, invisible Web or the hidden Web is not the web you see when you query a search engine. Results from normal search engines are part of the surface Web, that is the part of the web indexed by search engines for normal browsing. It has been estimated that the deep net is several orders of magnitude larger than the general exposed surface Web so using C# , .Net 2.0 and some of Google's advanced operators it is possible to come up with some astonishing results. Everyone knows how good Google is at searching the web and providing excellent results but Google is capable of much much more. Harnessing the power of a desktop application its possible to query Google's search engine to return deep web results. This application aims to enhance peoples understanding of the real web and its possibilities as well as help them find the exact file or document they are looking for that is if they are not be able to find it on the surface web through normal search engines.
