Deleted files listed in windows search in Windows Vista

Deleted files listed in windows search in Windows Vista or Vista Search Returns Deleted Files

Cause:
This is a normal behavior of the Indexing Service. Since Indexing is a background program it only indexes the hard drive at here and there during low or no usage by you. It will eventually update itself and remove the deleted files from the indexed search results. When you use the non-indexed, it searches the hard drive in real time and not from a older indexed list. That is why you do not see them in it.

Resolution :
1. You may leave as it is until the index get updated. Or
2. You may follow the below given steps to rebuild the index.
Click on start button .
Control Panel
type Search in the search box
click Indexing Options
Advanced-> Rebuild.
