TCstripper

TCstripper scans files for inappropriate Type & Creator (potential trojan horses)

TCstripper is an AppleScript droplet to check if files with document file extensions (eg. MP3, PDF, JPG) contain Mac OS Type & Creator information which enables the file to execute potentially malicious code if openend by double clicking or Cmd-O in the Finder. TCstripper allows to check multiple files, folders, and nested folders at once by drag&drop. TCstripper identifies suspicious files and then offers to trash it or to deactivate the inappropriate Type & Creator info so the file can be openend without the ability to execute code which can be hidden in ID3 tags of MP3 files for example.
