Is there a way to perform a search from one forum and see results from multiple forums? Can you do this if you don't have access to the database? Say from only a end user's perspective?

Reason: There are multiple forums out there all related to the same topic. You are looking for some information. So instead of going to each and every forum individually, you goto one of them and perform a search, check off a list of sites you want to search and it returns a combined result. Is this possible? Anyone want to work on it?

thanks,

You can selected multiple forums (or all) in the advanced search page. Just click on Search in the menubar, then select advanced search.

Ok. Let me be clearer. I want to search multiple instances of vBulletin. Not just one install. I want to be able to search many different servers all at once. Not just the individual forums on one instance.
