Re: Orphan graphic files - how to find?

Well, you could always download the 30 day trial of dreamweaver at
www.macromedia.com and do it.  Make your site a "site" in the dialog box, do
check links sitewide, and it'll find them.  Of course, after the trial
expires you'd be out of luck, but you sounded like you just needed it for
this one project?

Sorry that I don't know of any freeware :(
