Word lists, again...

Hi,
  during a pen-test I have found a directory which probably has exec
permission.
Since I didn't have any name of files (listing is not allowed) my
approach was to try a sort of "dictionary attack" on the URL.
I tried with a normal English dictionary but it didn't find anything
(each word was truncated to the 8th char and ".exe" was appended)...
does anyone know if there is a list of common names of CGIs available
(for Unix and win platforms) ?

Thx

Alberto
