Finding out which projects use a particular plugin

Hi,
a while ago, someone posted a way of inspecting all your projects to find out which ones use a particular plugin, using some third party utility. Tried unsuccessfully to find it using the search facility. Anyone point me to the post, or remember the name of the utility?
Thanks
Simon

    hi ! 

    you're looking for SAFE MODE ... 

    click FILE----OPEN ... 

    select your Sonar project file, by single-clicking on it ... 

    the press SHIFT+OPEN 

    That should do it !

    I haven't got a problem with a plug-in, I just want to know if I can remove a plug-in without breaking projects - there was definitely a way of doing it by searching the files for a text string
