New I'm trying DUFF now.
AcuteFinder seems to want me to register it again, so I'm looking at other things that are out there. While [link|http://rdfind.paulsundvall.net/|rdfind] looks to be speedy, I don't have time to get cygwin working, etc., etc. I didn't get very far with Python or perl either... :-/

I'm trying [link|http://dff.sourceforge.net/|DUFF] now. It's listed as an alpha, but it has lots of nice options (like adjustable CPU load). We'll see how it goes.

Just in case it comes up again... :-)

Cheers,
Scott.

New It's called an alpha for a reason.
In trying it on 4 PCs, it only completed successfully on 1 (with only a 30 GB partition). On the other 3, it closed up without warning after scanning for a day or more. Unless you've got a small drive, it's not worth bothering with, and even then there are likely more robust tools. Another strike against it is you can't save or export the results....

It looks pretty nice though. ;-)

Cheers,
Scott.

Here we have a game that combines the charm of a Pentagon briefing with the excitement of double-entry bookkeeping. I don't get it.
