Script to remove space in all files in all subfolders

I have a folder c:\pictures, that has a lot of subfolders that contain
subfolders. I want to go through every .jpg in and below that pictures
folder and remove all spaces from the file names. is there a script out
there that would do this?

There are numerous bulk rename utilities floating about, most of them free.
Try entering the following words in a Google search box:

bulk file rename

You will get some 800,000 hits.

OK, thanks. Any you would recommend? it'd be cool if i could find one that
would work on a local drive as well as against a Samba share on a server.
