Well, regardless, I have done plenty of file recovery with Helix.
True, it may be designed for forensics but copying files off of disks
is part of forensic work. There are a lot of other disks that do
similar stuff. I like Helix though - it has served me well on several
projects so far. To each his own.

You two are talking in Jargon new to me. I do not know how to get Helix
or what it is. I gather IT whatever it is will tell you about the sex
life of your computer. How do I get it and is there information on it's
use anywhere?
