nowave7 showed why this is such a great community and I used a few thanks buttons in this thread.

As a note, you can send certain messages to /dev/null and make it easier to read output, so searching from root dir (usually) or from somewhere you'll be seeing permission denied messages is better done that way. So:

Code:
find / -iname "*yadda*"
is (sometimes) better as

Code:
find / -iname "*yadda*" 2> /dev/null
