Question Junk search results & filters

Like many others, it seems, I am plagued by junk search results! The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the filters are useless. For example, I tried a video search for "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" to see what I'd get - spam. I entered just 2 new criteria in my search which were, a) DVD movie & b) Jack Nicholson in the 'stars' box. I received a message telling me my search was too specific!!!!!!!!

Am I destined to wade through an avalanche of unrelated garbage every time I use this thing?
Can you help me out before this programme drives me over the cuckoo's nest!!!

(Wish my trusty WinMX would run, but it suddenly refuses to connect for no apparent reason)
