It depends upon what you are trying to do. If you are trying to identify file types, a tool which I have looked into and tested is File Investigator by Robware http://www.robware.com/. There are also a number of other utilities out there which use extension analysis. File Investigator looks into the file itself and attempts to identify the file. Also Encase has some functionality with regard to file identification as well. ----- Original Message -----
