If you don't want to get into installing your own open source software, I
recently came across and used freefind:

http://www.freefind.com/

You just have to sign up for their search service, make a page with one of
their search buttons on it, and it will trawl through your site create a top
level site index. It might be a quick and dirty way of seeing what you are
dealing with.

Timo
