FWIW not quick or useful for me. It locks up Finder and I have to force
quit. 2GHz Imac G5, 10.4.2

"Entire contents" can take a very long time to run on an entire disk.

I think that you may need to run some disk repair utilities.

When run from the Script Editor Michelle's script times out on my machine. {Dual 867 G4}

 "Finder got an error: AppleEvent timed out."

But the Finder keeps grinding away and "requires" a relaunch.

Perhaps setting a longer timeout would permit a result.
