I am looking for a file search utility that can do boolean searches, or exclude certain file types from the search results.
My specific example is that I have a large MP3 collection, and some of the folders have thing such as playlists, album cover art, etc. I want to have a list of file that are NOT MP3's....
That way I can look at each one and decide whether or not to get rid of them.
Any suggestions on where to look? Freeware is a must, portable is not, although it would be nice. I have looked at most of the files searching utilities listed here, and have not found any that can do this. Any utility must have the capability to work over a network share.

LookDisk might do the job.
Click "Search Files". Then select the "Extended Parameters" tab. You have the option of specifying "Files to be excluded". Enter "*.MP3".
Then specify the drives/folders to the searched, and just click on the "Search!" button.
