I need more generic empty dungeons besides the ones offered at wizards.com.
Where can I find some?

Free stuff:
If you don't mind CC2 style maps, try http://www.profantasy.com/library/default.asp
Random dungeons (may not make much sense all the time, but they're free):
http://www.rpghost.com/dungeon_gen.shtml
Make your own cut-out dungeons:
http://www.solis-media.co.uk/relocated/rpg_archive/floorplans/
Several floorplans, though not too many "dungeons":
http://users.interconnect.net/indy/floorpln.htm
Pay options:
IIRC, SJG has a collection of generic dungeon maps
Go to Ebay, and look for someone selling a large lot of old 1e adventures - they've been really cheap on ebay lately, and the maps are still just as good as always. Bonus if the adventures have already been converted in Conversion Library

A while back, someone mentioned that their local city planner's office would provide sewer maps free of charge. I'm sure those would make decent dungeon maps if you took the names off of them.

If you happen to be JUST talking about the map-a-week archives at wizards.com, check out the dungeon back issues archives; many of the maps are duplicated there, and I have had some really good luck plundering those:
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dungeon/backissues
(click on the thumbnails, each one has a "map downloads" link.)
Also, the map generator someone mentioned at RPGhost has a downloadable version hosted here at ENWorld. Go to the main page and then software.

Didn't mean to imply a problem with the program - I happen to think it's great.
Some don't care for the aesthetics of the maps it produces, that's all.
If you like the maps featured on profantasy's site, and can deal with the (somewhat steep, but manageable IMO) learning curve, you'll be fine.

I would purchase Fractal Mapper instead, or download Autorealm, which is free. You can also buy a PDF product called Castles & Keeps that has nifty floorplans. Go here.
