Not through the web wiz forums but you could run an SQL Replace Query against the database directly.

UPDATE tblThread
SET Message =
REPLACE(SUBSTRING(Message , 1, DATALENGTH(Message)), 'string2replace',
'replacementString')

Make sure you backup your database first before you run the query in case it should all go wrong.
