Is there any search engine on the Web that searches fserves and perhaps
FTP sites that are set up by IRC users?

how could a search english search fserves? the user has to give you access
to be able to look at his directory and access it.

Actually, there was a search engine on the Web for searching
fserves, but it is no longer working. Check it out at:
http://www.ls400.com/fsearchweb/

Does anybody know of any other search engine that searches
fserves?

FServes are file servers. Theyre DCC chat sessions where one client (the
fserver) gives the other access to certain files on their machine. Searching
'the web' for one would be a useless and futile endeavour. I believe you are
confusing FServes with FTPs. You can search for those, since they are
usually up for a length of time to make such a search worthwhile.
