I know it's the site software but I wondered if it could be changed.

Yeah. Even "SSN" won't return any results. I prefer the forums search over the google search, because you can get more specific. But people aren't going to write "Social Security Number" when SSN is understood, so I have no idea how you get around things like that. Other than crappy google, of course.

also if you try to search using a 3 letter word using the search bar on top of the page, it seems to work without the *....
