I have looked and looked for a search that will search category names, and descriptions along with the products.

I can not find one.

Any ideas?

Agree! I was just looking for this sort of extension yesterday!

Just to add on to this - searching of information pages would be extremely helpful as well.

Both things are on my list for Smart Search, but since it doesn't change the search page template file, unless I can find a more elegant way then the categories/information pages would end up being displayed inline with products.

That may not be to bad,

To add to this if there is a number, word, or image name, available to the front end then a search engine should pick it up. A check box to search only products would be good. When you are trying to find something, you can not beat a good search.... Google does a better job of searching this forum then the forum itself.
