If you want to get rid of Spotlight more completely, follow the steps just outlined, and then launch Terminal (/Applications/Utilities) and type the following:
Code:
sudo pico /etc/hostconfig


What's missing in the instructions after this is that you need to change the line which reads
Code:
SPOTLIGHT=-YES-

to
Code:
SPOTLIGHT=-NO-

Then Ctrl-X to exit, enter Y to save, then restart.
