Searching for tickers with three letters

Is anyone aware of a way to do a search on the site for a three letter word? When attempting searches such as "XYZ", I get an error that the search term is too short. Adding an asterisk for wildcard didn't seem to help as it returns only four(+) letter matches. Thanks.

I tried it with Google's search engine using the somewhat rare three-letter word vig as an example. Input was elitetrader.com AND vig to force them both to be present.

It initially asked me if I meant big instead of vig and I clicked on "search only for elitetrader.com AND vig" and got lots of occurrences of the word within the forum. See pic below.

We actually had the ability to do 2 and 3-letter ticker searches a couple of years ago because I was running an outsourced search service. And then out of the blue, the search software company upgraded everything and implemented a security measure that our forum software company was not able (or even willing) to immediately comply with so we had to literally go backwards in our search ability in order to even have search at all. Total pain in the ass. Between that and some other new incompatibility issues, a complete site overhaul is imminent.

Will it have an accommodation for good music, and the one on the right? :)
