If you are an administrator and have users on your server, keeping files with limited permissions should be a priority. To seek out all world-writable files on your machine, do a simple
find / -perm -2 ! -type l -ls

Thank you for the exact command I was needing! However, you may want to put a note on this excellent command that if you have any nfs mounted directories, it will list all of those world writeable files. Could be literally millions of files.
Again, thank you for your work! It is greatly appreciated by us users!!!!!
