hi;
@ireland; how are you making out ?
If rescueing NTFS, there may be more involved than what I can help you with, but I can try to help you rescue any Fat16/32 partitions you have

@Harry;
just want to let you know -- the info you posted is informative even to me - I already knew the md5 stuff (learned from reading awhile back when I d/l Knoppix 3.6 from a mirror) and was a bit leary of BitTorrent and if it's possible to get infected (adware/spyware/malware) from using it (as I'm leary of almost all d/l apps). But you've given a lot oif useful info concerning using BitTorrent - just wanted to say all your explanation wasn't done in vain
