Well, you may want to massage that user-entered query string a little bit, perhaps just enough to get rid of AND, OR, and NOT. What if the user enters *foo? Leading wildcards won't work, most likely. You can either let things break or proactively try to fix thing (like the annoying MS Word autocorrection feature ;)).
