Search all videos under vista

Hello,

While searching through my computer, I found video files dating back 4 months in the temporary download files. Since I don't like having files lying around everywhere, I wanted to search for all files, audio and video like in XP.
Unfortunately, I can't find the function in Vista that allows for such searches. Is there any solution? 
Configuration: Windows Vista Firefox 3.0.1

    In fact, you go to the folder where you want to search.

    And in the search box at the top right, you type kind:videos and it will filter the content to display only videos.

    According to my tests, it also searches within subfolders.

    There you go ;)

    You search everywhere and type: *.avi *.mpg *.wmv and any other video extension...

    Yes, it's a solution, but I'm not familiar with all video extensions, like the .part from temporary downloads.

    Download BeClean, install it, and it will wipe all its useless stuff with a wave of a magic wand.
