You can also use

Code:

find . -name "*.*" -size 0c -exec rm -i {} \;

"rm -i" asks you if you want to delete it or not. Works on Debian Linux and AIX at least.

Btw. that find did not work for me on Debian and AIX. If you encounter the same problem, you might try:

Code:

find . -type f -size -1 -exec rm -i {} \;
