Hello, Frank.
Fortunately, you do not need an account to use Google's services to
search the Web.
I do not know what search service you have been using, but you can
easily opt to search with Google by clicking on this link:
://www.google.com
The link above takes you to Google's main page, through which you can
easily access Google Web Search (this is the default,) Google Image
Search (this is very useful if you are looking for photographs or
other graphic images,) Google Groups (this searches the vast archives
of "newsgroups," which contain a multitude of posts by computer users
on every subject imaginable,) Google Directory (a helpful categorical
list of many, many subjects) and Google News (which searches 4,000
online newspapers and other sources of current events.)
Since, in this search, you are looking only for Web pages that have
been indexed in the past six months, click this link:
://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en
This is the "Advanced Search," which enables you to narrow your search
guidelines. To find material on the Web which mentions Antonia
Zerbisias, and which was indexed in the past six months, type 'Antonia
Zerbisias' in the white box which says "with the exact phrase." (This
means that only the full two-word phrase 'Antonia Zerbisias' will be
sought.) In this case, since 'Zerbisias' is an unusual name, you will
get substantially the same results if you use the top box, the one
that says "with all of the words." The difference is that the top box
would also find pages that have, anywhere on the page, the word
'Antonia' and also the word 'Zerbisias,' even if these words are NOT
adjacent to each other; that can make a big difference with many
phrases, particularly if they contain very frequently-used words. When
using the Google Advanced Search, do not hit the "Enter" key on your
keyboard while typing information, or the search engine will think you
are finished entering all your search parameters.
After you've entered the name 'Antonia Zerbisias,' look farther down
the page, and you'll see a section that says "Date - Return web
pages updated in the" (followed by a box with a pull-down menu that
begins with "anytime.") To use the pull-down menu, click the
downward-pointing arrow on the right of the menu. This will show your
choices: "anytime," "past 3 months," "past 6 months," or "past year."
Click "past 6 months." Now you are ready to commence your search.
Click the button that says "Google Search" (it is right next to the
"with the exact phrase" box.) This will activate the search and
display your results.
I've taken you through this so that you can become comfortable with
searching; if you're in a hurry and don't want to go step-by-step
through the above procedure, you can click below for the results of my
Google search for Web pages indexed in the last six months which
mention Antonia Zerbisias:
Google Web Search: "Antonia Zerbisias"
://www.google.com/search?as_q=&num=100&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&newwindow=1&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=Antonia+Zerbisias&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=lang_en&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=m6&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&safe=off
Here you'll find five sites mentioning Antonia Zerbisias that I
located with Google News Search:
Google News Search: "Antonia Zerbisias"
http://news.google.com/news?q=%22Antonia+Zerbisias%22&num=100&hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=UTF-8&newwindow=1&safe=off&sa=G&scoring=d
And here is a list of newsgroup posts in which the name "Antonia
Zerbisias" appears:
Google Groups Search: "Antonia Zerbisias"
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=+%22Antonia+Zerbisias%22&num=100&hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&newwindow=1&safe=off&as_drrb=b&as_mind=22&as_minm=6&as_miny=2002&as_maxd=22&as_maxm=12&as_maxy=2002&scoring=d
This is the only image that I could find, using Google Image Search:

In addition to the Google URLs (Internet addresses) listed above,
there's another important Google tool that I highly recommend. The
Google Toolbar makes searching much easier, and it automatically
appears along with your Internet Explorer toolbar, enabling you to use
Google to search from any website location without having to return to
the Google homepage.
You can download the free Google Toolbar here:

I hope the information I've provided has been helpful. If anything
I've said is unclear, or if any of the links do not function, please
request clarification, and I'll be glad to offer further assistance.
Best regards,
