Sorry, I cannot simulate the problem on 3.0.3RC1.
I've created a post with "win win7". A search for either correctly returns the post.

No !
If you create a post only with "win7" and search for "win", dont find nothing.

That's how it was designed to work.
If you don't like it, you can always help us to improve the search algorithm.

Unfortunately I dont know PHP ! Sorry !
But is a big error to dont find simple words inside complex words.
Your algorithm is about find "win" (with quotes) and not win (without quotes)
Please add this abbility (searching with quotes or not ) at the next version of FUDforum!
Its very nice (and useful) ability of the search operation.

Well, then you need to learn PHP. I like it just the way it is and will definitely not implement this myself.

The searching simple words inside complex words must be the default. (win searching without quotes find : win7, windows ,winding ...)
If the user wants to search only the word he must write the word with quotes. ("win" searching find only the word win )

Go and tell that to Google, Yahoo and all the other search engines.
