Pros
This is a handy little tool for finding and removing Byte Order Marks (BOM), or signatures, in UTF-8 files that shouldn't have them. It also detects and removes UTF-16 if needed.
Cons
I have found that you need to be careful when using this application as it does not check the files again before removing the BOM. This has, on one occasion, resulted in a handful of files having the first two characters removed from the file. Mainly due to some of the files being changed while the Detector was in the process of removing the BOM's.
