Default Search limited to 6+ characters?

Is this a permanent change? I know it will make the index smaller, but a six character limit might severely limit the usefulness of the search function. I just tried to do a search on "CAPT" but couldn't.

If board performance or server load is a concern, consider adding a Google search box. It appears that there is already a VBulletin mod in place that simulates non-dynamic pages to allow crawling by search engines, so the addition of a Google search that's limited to this domain should be fairly easy.

And CAPT wouldn't be on my A or B list...

Okay, okay! I lied anyway, I was really trying to search for "porn."

And if I already didn't say, it should be back to normal.
