Under system (.x or earlier you use File Buddy for this sort of work. It is completely configurable and will build you a file list of any criteria you can imagine. So much for being caught out. Disk scrubbing utilities are readily aailable for Macs.

I do not know whether or not File Buddy has a 10.x versionbut if you go to www.versiontracker.com you can find out in a hurry. If not, and the machines you are talking about use 10.x, Apple maintains a very useful directory to all kinds of software for 10.x systems and I am sure you can find all the power you need.

As for finding things under 10.x, it is a complete UNIX system under the hood and you can grep any obscure thing your heart desires!
