ShareGuard is a specialized bot for your channel that indexes all files of the users in your channel. It offers a search function in your channel with wildcard search and prints out who has what file.

It also can autokick users that have files that you don't want in your room.
So this was that program! I'm testing it right away upon its first release, thanks to Bender and Co at MxControl!! :D

Bender has posted this on his MxControls site.
Once started ,Shareguard starts indexing files immediately. For a room with 80 users and approx 60,000 files that takes about 20 mins on a ADSL line (768down/128up).
The search result format can be configured to contain filesize, bitrate, playbacktime, samplerate. You can set it to index only regular users (with a tag in the name or something, of course then the autokick feature wont work anymore) or limit the !find trigger to regular users.

The configuration of the bot is a real mess though at this point as you have to hack yourself through a cryptic cfg-files. Also the bot sometimes fails to remove files from users that left the room from the index. That is why its not released yet.
Thanx for the update Bender :D

Ok we look like we are a step nearer to a release :D
Bender posted this today .
Hi, I am looking for one or two people willing to participate in a non-public beta-test of ShareGuard.

If you have your own channel and are interested in testing the program, drop me a line.

(Program may not be redistributed to others by you)
Sounds like he is ready to kick out a few bugs and iron the code out a bit :)
Thanx for devoting your time Bender we all appreciate it 8)
