Well, the first answer that occurs to me is to head down to plan 9 (um wait your not in aberdeen. well you must have an equivalent, that shop on some back street which sells everything to do with RPGs and stuff. right now they tend to have Lord of the Rings plastered all over the front window) and purchase yourself a monstrous manual. the only prob is they tend to be third edition (which BG isnt, mostly). cost £15. at least it does here.
however, this walthough does have at least a basic listing of monsters:

link _should_ take you right to the begining. it
dsoent have stats tho.
memnoch, on the other hand, does have access to a frightening amount of information, which he posts regularly. i think he has (or knows of), and online (althouh not necesarily internet) version of the monstrous manual. certainly, if hes typed out some of his posts (specially the one on drow) he is one very devoted (insane?) moderator for this board.
