This applescript droplet will clean up Windows shares mounted through the Mac OS X samba client, by removing all "._*" files, .DS_Store files and .Trashes folders on all the volumes and folders dragged on it.
Use it only on shares that do not contain files with relevant information in their resource fork, since the ._* files are the resource fork of files stored on samba shares.
Handy and usefull for all that volumes that you share with Windows machines.
CleanUp smb mess is free, but a thanks mail would be apreciated :-)
