The IXSSO.Query is not working on windows 2008, but, the object MSIDXS is working yet, simply change the syntax of searches to:
you can select other columns like: Rank, DocAuthor, DocAppName, DocTitle, FileName, Create, Access, Characterization, VPath
other commands are available on http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/Indexing_Service_HOW-TO.aspx?display=PrintAll
Set rs1= Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs1.Open "SELECT FileName,Characterization FROM SCOPE('DEEP TRAVERSAL of """ & your_directory& """') WHERE FREETEXT(Contents, '" & your_searchword & "') order by rank","PROVIDER=MSIDXS; DATA SOURCE=" & your_catalog_name & ";"
if not rs1.eof then
do while not rs1.eof
file_name=rs1("file_name")
resume=rs1("characterization")
rs1.movenext
loop
end if
