Hi

I think one of the most frequent needs for computer people (esp those who
are supposed to be better than others) is to help recover data from
accidental deletion, crashed hard disks, virus infections (if the computers
are the "wincing" ones)

So from experience from own and other data recovery, Use testdisk and for
camera data cards photorec.

These are small programmes - and command line. And they work well of Live
CD's

So install this and learn how to use it - experiment on a thumbdrive (delete
some pictures _ of course after backing them up) and try to recover them.

Its fun and also a good addition to your computer repertoire.
