This is the feature of VBull I hate :(

I guess if you type in just three letters, you're gonna get too many hits, the VBull creators didn't think about TLAs though :(

But you can use the * character on the end of TLAs I believe, so to search for MCU stuff, search for

MCU*

where the * acts as a space, especially useful for when you're looking for phrases...

Oh well, good question :)

it's a regular expression search. it will search any matching topic that matches the first 3-letter search string.

have you tried using the ?,*.... when looking for a file on your drive?
