The version of Instant Recall you have is now sold as Memory Mate by Broderbund
software.  It should be available from any decent place which sells software. 
I never ran into a file size limitation with Instant Recall.  The biggest
difference I noticed was that Memory Mate will accept wildcard arguments in a
search.

Also note that there is now a commercial product called Instant Recall.  It has
no relation to the program you have used.
