Quotes should work as expected to search for the exact phrase.
I would also like to see options for "all words" or "any words." |

No, it doesn't drop the word if it's in quotes, it just says it does. It's a minor bug with the error display.
*object* to turning it off, that creates extra server load.

This can be really frustrating. Using Google gets you around this problem--unless you're searching a forum that isn't googled.

"site:dslreports.com bobrk"
I didn't find all my posts, though. I don't think justin allows the entire site to be searched.

If I use quotes, the quoted string is what I want to search against. |

That has not been my observation. It seems to be more fuzzy than a simple string search. And when I use quotes, that's all that I want - a simple string search.
