Yup, tried all of that too. Problem with my commercial search/replace software is that it only accepts x number of file types and sometimes it seems to me like it's behaving a little odd, although not 100% certain on that. When I search, I search the entire root folder of the portal with all of its contents AFTER I made sure to upload the whole thing onto the hard disk. But my searches are limited to PHP, TPL, HTM, HTML, ASP, TXT, DOC and XLS. If the items in question are hidden in other file types such as .INI, .CSS, .CONF, .CGI, and so on, then they won't show up for me.
My commercial editing software can open up just about any file. So when I utlize the *.* function for file opening, I'll get to see EVERY file in that folder, regardless what type it is. That won't tell me where the hidden information is though. Sure, the info. can be found and I'm sure it's just a matter of time until you or I find it, but I was seriously trying to avoid having to spend "oodles of time" with something that should actually require very little time. Hmmm, I suppose that I could try a windows disk search with Vista/Ultimate and the new & improved "super search indexing" options ... later on or tomorrow perhaps. Let me know if you get lucky with your searches. Thanks!
