I have also tried running the executable scripts in the programs

A few dumb questions
What happens when you run the executable scripts?
What do the executable scripts run?
Have you looked in the directories for files with execute permission?

I can no longer remember how but it used to be easy (when I did such things as part of my job) to write a script that would display within a subtree only files with executable permission. Kornshell, I seem to remember used
  if [ -x "$file" ]
  then ...
where "$file" is a variable. Don't know about other shells.
