MySQL FULLTEXT search with MATCH ... AGAINST problems

I am trying to get some decent results from using:

SELECT * FROM $Articles WHERE MATCH (article_body) AGAINST ('$searchstring')

$searchstring is a PHP variable from a FORM

I think that there is a default 50% threshold thing which stops all return values if there is more than 50% read.

Anyone got this working satisfactorily? I was think of setting up a new table field called KEYWORDS, and running the MATCH against that... what do you think? Thanks
