File search software

[madman045]

Can anyone recommend something better that windows search?

Currently looking to tidy up a clients server as they have powerpoint presentations in so many different places, windows search falls over after a period of time.

I need to find out where they are, how many there, total disk space used and files with the same name, a comparison on both size, date etc..

Thanks

its all about the indexing

Or Google Desktop, but the indexing is slower to complete. Oh and its free.

I had a couple of problems with google desktop a few years back , so have shyed away from it - it didn't like multiple people using a workstation , and wasn't good for searching reomte locations.

foudn this one which may well do the job...
