Default Desktop Search Problem

Using Outlook Express some unwanted and unpleasant files from a NewsGroup to
which I did not subscribe got 'saved' automatically on my WXP2 Home laptop.
I found and removed them (erased) but now Windows Desktop Search keeps
finding them, with a path to the non-existing file and headings for their
content. They cannot be opened or deleted (as they are not there!) but are
listed. I cannot find them with Search or Run. I have tried 3 Registry
Cleaners, but still WDS finds the offending material. How can I fully clean
up so that WDS no longer shows these non-existent folders / files?
