Citeknet or IFilterShop filters for MSN Desktop Search?

Anyone know why the Citeknet filters for MSN Desktop Search are almost always way smaller than IFilterShop's filters?

I think that's only true of the pdf one. And that's probably because the pdf one includes adobe's huge pdf libraries?

I never really paid too much attention to the size. However, it seems to me that the Citeknet IFilters actually work like they're supposed to. Maybe it's just me but I can't get the IFilterShop IFilters to work inside of ZIP files and such.

I have two identical installations one using Citeknet IFilters and the other using IFilterShop's. I can drop the same zip file on each machine and the Citeknet box will index the contents of the zip file and IFilterShop's won't.

Maybe there's some special order that I need to install the IFilters for IFilterShop's to work but it's just not worth it for me right now. <sigh>
