bat file

dir /a /s c:\*.rar >> rarfiles.txt

change the c:\ to any other dir you like to scan it should create a txt file with all the rar files and where they are enjoy

Here's a bit more universal version of what ThrillKill posted:

RARFinder.bat

CODE

dir /a /s %1:\*.rar >> rarfiles.txt

Now you only need to enter the letter of the drive as a parameter of this bat file. No need to edit it each time, eg.:

CODE

RARFinder.bat c

RARFinder.bat is your name of the bat file - you can change this to anything you want.

EDIT:
BTW. wouldn't it be much simplier to use FlashFXP built-in "Find Files on FTP serwer" feature?

ok... now you confused your self m8... that batch file will work on stros or any dos shell
but not on a public ftp
so yes search with the flashfxp option for pubs

Hey CraZy_A, i've made just some little modifications to ThrillKill bat example. This way you don't need to edit the file each time you want to use it for a different disk. And yes it won't work on public ftp's... unless admin forgot (or did this for some purpose but i can't imagine why) to remove Execute attrib:P

hmm execute on linux pubs??? nope...
execute on M$ FTP Service? pffff they prolly dont know how to code this option lol
not many servers support execute... servu does but most of anonymous servu ftps are missconfigured wizard genarated accounts that have only upload\download premissions and no more

btw what the /a switch does?

dir with "/a" switch (alone - not with 'hsdar' attributes) shows you all files including system and hidden files.
So in my example it looks for all rar files (hidden and normal) on given disk. Not many ppl are hiding rar archives but who knows what you can find
