This is a simple script that will check your plists for corruption. It must be run as root. 
#!/bin/sh
# plist_chk.sh

# Check that we are being run as root
if [ $USER != "root" ]; then
  echo "You must be root to execute this script."
  echo ""
  exit 1
fi

xargs -0 /usr/bin/plutil -lint -s
find /Users -name "*.plist" -print0 | \
xargs -0 /usr/bin/plutil -lint -s
