How do you search files on IRC? You're joking, right?
There are IRC/XDCC search engines. I don't know their exact method of scraping IRC servers, but they kinda work.
Also, if you know the right servers and channels, most have some kind of search index or bot.
Not joking. There are sites like sunxdcc for searching from the web, and otherwise, !s in chats to search. Works great, honestly.
