Did you get any advice from that forum? Was it helpful?

Don't get any results? Ever? If so, adding an index wouldn't help.
What you'll need to supply is:
1. The query
2. Details of the table(s) - number of rows, number of distinct values
in columns being matched against
3. Output of EXPLAIN ANALYZE for your query
4. A couple of details of your server (RAM, number of disks, processors etc)
I'm sure someone here will be able to help then.
