An internet search engine that returned useful hits would be nice.

Also an anti-spam filter that works.

Whats the matter with google? Are you aware of its advanced search features - boolean operators, phrasing, specific file types, specific url searching, etc

Speaking of search engines. I'd like to see one that does voice and picture searches.
