Dose anyone else have a problem with this function? It has been driving me crazy for months. Every time I turn my computer on I get at least 5 Indexing dialog box?s come up. How do i make it go away?

or any for that matter. If the indexing service is on, but you never allow it to actually index, it will probably get cranky.

If you have no real need for it, disable the service. All it does is create a large database of files so that the Windows search function is a bit faster.
