MS Full Text Search Noise Words

I setup Full Text search on a few fields of a table.
If I type in the word "the", I get a Runtime Error.

Any word that is in the Noise word file (like "the") will cause a
Runtime Error.

How can I avoid Runtime Errors with these words?
I would like to just remove all entries from the file.

I currently allow only words greater than 2 characters
for a search but that is not enough to get around the noise words.

Thanks
