--- Comment #7 from funkybomber at gmail.com ---
I am wondering if this is the actual intended behaviour by the developers. 

Let's say we have "Drive A" and "Drive B".
Drive A contains a symbolic link to "myfile.txt" that is stored in "Drive B".
If the user uses KFind to search into Drive A for "*.txt" what is the expected
result? I expect that "myfile.txt" should *not* be returned, and rightly so as
it is located in a different drive so it is out of scope for the user's search.

If the user decides to search for "*.txt" inside Drive B then the file should
be returned.

Maybe I am not understanding the problem correctly. Please clarify.
