Is there a way to search for specific type of sites?

[Sarah Crary Gregory]

You don't need to use any "super search" or advanced search features in
Altavista; in the search box, simply include the following along with 
your search string:

+host:gov

(or edu, com, whatever...)

& that'll limit the search to hosts within that domain.
