I use Altavista if I want a lot of hits. Yahoo is good too. I've tried
google, snap, and lycos - but not enough to have formed an opinion about
them.
But my favorite is infoseek.com - they're the only search engine I know of
that lets you re-search your search results. It makes it alot easier to
narrow down searches to manageable numbers.
If you're looking for filtered results, try about.com
