Utility to delete folders from x days

[Guest]

Hi All,

Does anyone know if there is any utility or script I can use to delete
folders in X number of days?

For example: These folders are automatically created based on date.

20051013
20051014
20051015
20051016
20051017
..
..
etc..


Thannks,

Steve
