regex question
Not being more than a noob at regex syntax I'm hoping for some help with this one..

Is it possible to make a regex that will parse a string for a certain number of "-" symbols?
Some 'bot is posting worms all over usenet with random filenames. The only common denominator is that the string is random words separated by dashes. I'd like to filter out anything with this structure if possible.
