NEED HELP - Installing Sphinx on VB Ver 4.2.0

Question 1:
Am I correct the the July 2012 version of Sphinx is correct for my VB Ver 4.2.0 at the following link:
http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads/

Question 2:
Once it is downloaded to my computer, where would I upload it to work on my forum?

Question 3:
Once it is uploaded to my forum, will it appear in the AdminCP in the PLUGINS tab where I can pick and choose to use it or disable it?

Question 4:
Any negative review on this from other forum owners?

Question 5:
Please post sample forum links that are presently using Sphinx.

Thanks,

David

1. Yes, you can use 2.0.5 or 0.9.9, your version of vb is irrelevant.

2. Upload it to your directory of choice, it doesnt matter what folder you compile the source from.

3. No, you would require a product/plugin that will interface w/ sphinx on the server.

4. No
