.net search algorithm?

I'm writing a ASP.net web app where users will be able to add wordy descriptions to a database table and was just wondering if there's some sort of (free) .net search plugin I could use to search through the database. I could write a simple SQL query to do it but I'd rather it be more robust and like a google search.

you are probably looking for lucene.net which a port of lucene. Provide search capabilities for arbitrary document (so you can also index database text with it). But I think you would rather index the html renders of your database entries (which lucene does beautifully).

If your database is SQL Server, then you use SQL Server full text search. It's right there, and has google-like semantics.
