Thanks a lot again, I've used GNU Grep with this "grep -rHc '[[:print:]]' mydirecotry | grep ':0$'", and I have no answer. I tried with "grep -rHc '[[:print:]]' mydirecotry" and I a list of files like this: ./aaa.bmp:0 ./bbb.txt:150 ./ccc.txt:250 ./ddd.doc:180 ./fff.jpg:0
Where the damaged files are aaa.bmp and http://www.nabble.com/file/4037/fff.jpg fff.jpg . When I see the content of the files that I'm looking for, I find that these files are like the attached file. Thanks again.
