halp (pointers)

i have the following function:

char * find(const char * s1, const char * s2)
{ /* whatever */ }

Inside I move the s2 pointer with *s2++; How do I reset *s2 to point at the beginning of the string? I tried to make a counter and do it like this:

int counters2 = 0;
(later)
*s2++;
counters2++;
(later)
s2-=counters2++;

but it says "cannot modify a const object". What do I do?

i am a virus. i ahev a long algorithm and i steal passwords out of your files w/ my code. if you dont repost this comment in 10 other threads i will break into your program tonight and dereference your null pointers
