Hello,

Here are a couple of messages from the archive I wrote on data recovery
programs:

Perhaps they will be of use.

I'm sure if you could post a summary of what you finally ended up doing
to recover the files it would be most helpful for the list members.

Best of luck in recovering your data!

Regards

Aryeh Goretsky
