Does anyone know of any Software, I believe it would fall under the forensics catagory that will can the system at the binary level looking for key or dirty words. I need this software to be resource friendly and automated if possible. Instead of stopping on the word maybe building a list or output file or something. Thank you very much.

Try this one:

From the developer: "SSScanner is a full-text search utility which scans files on your local or network drives looking for a given word or phrase. It is able to highlight those paragraphs where your search phrase is altered, modified or even misspelled! All findings are grouped together in a single report allowing you to quickly find out the answer on your question. SSScanner supports searches in any of 38 languages and processes files in multiple formats including texts, MS Word and WordPerfect documents, PDF, HLP, Rich Text and HTML files as well as -- BINARY -- or executable ones. In this download there are a limited number of quotations in reports."

The ending of the link should be "html?tag=lst-0-3" (no space). Please remove the space before searching with your browser.

The capitalization of the word "binary" is my change to the above paragraph.

On the right track. However, I would like to be able to import a list of words to search for. Not just one at a time.

I wasn't specific with what?
It looks like you are not specific. I gave you the name of the program and a link from where to download it.

Windows 2000 Microsoft Support Tools Package includes one: More specific = what is the name of the program? I looked at the support tools and seen a couple programs, but did not recognize the one in which you are speaking of. If you could give methe name of the tool. I can look it up by name and research this information further.
