| 140889 | 2003-05-03 04:00:00 | Computer Forensics is overkill JM, cost would be around $500 +++ . It is quicker, cheaper and faster to use Nortons . My main objection to freeware is the sheer number of files, which would probably exceed any concept the freeware writer considered, and the lack of certainty in the outcomes . The ease of using a mature program makes it a worthwhile purchase, and you get all the other Norton tools as well, including a fresh subscription to NAV . Downloading 14GB would take an awful long time . Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 140890 | 2003-05-03 04:22:00 | Fair enough Billy T. I'll let you have that one, it certainly would cost a lot. But if you REALLY wanted it back you'd do that. Just if it was me I'd realise that none of them were crucial files and know that I could get them back in a couple of hours in three weeks time. |

| 140891 | 2003-05-05 01:24:00 | www.ontrack.com Norton is OK, but to be honest I don't have a lot of faith in its ability to bring back stuff from the ether. Easy Recovery Pro is a good program, download the trial and see what it can pull off. I initially had a friend download it through kazaa to try and recover some files of a crashed hdd and was so convinced that I brought it. Definitely a tool to consider adding if your budget can stretch to it. |

| 140892 | 2003-05-05 02:46:00 | How well is Norton's Undelete? I tried using Norton's Undelete but it couldn't do a thing with NTFS although this was when NTFS was relatively new, things may have changed now. I used a program that is excellent called Get Data Back for NTFS or Get Data Back for Fat which restored about 10gigs of Data I had lost and that I had deleted purposely. I don't have a link to it but searching on Google will bring it up. I'm not sure about the limitations whether you had to buy it or is shareware as I only had to use it the once and was desperate to get my data back that I'd pay just about anything. |

| 140893 | 2003-05-05 02:54:00 | Hi Trev From your link it appears that Drive rescue has been either completely discontinued as a free download, or the code has been sold and is now available from the commercial site this URL now links to. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 140894 | 2003-05-05 03:24:00 | you're right Billy, it's gone, bummer, as it was a good programe that saved me a few times (at least I've still got it!) . Since 1sikmaz has gone too, maybe the drama is over and everything is all roses again? |

| 140895 | 2003-05-05 04:22:00 | Although rarely needed, I have found Nortons excellent. I didn't take to it until I moved to W95 though, as I had previously always used the undelete (Oops) feature of XTree Gold which was simple and fast. Usually I pull deleted or missing files from my Ghost backups and most others get captured by the Recycle Bin so it is a rare event to lose one thoroughly enough to need Nortons these days.
