Oh Shit!
I have been in IT for a long time now and I can’t tell you how many times I have had to restore accidentally deleted files. There have been some free programs in the past to help, but none as quick and easy as this one.
Listen up, I am in no way affiliated with Piriform and am not receiving anything for writing about them. The thing is that I have been real busy lately with my consulting work as opposed to my web design work. I needed a fast solution for a Windows Vista machine that lost data and Recuva File Recovery was the answer.
The download is 3,668 kb and installs in seconds. Piriform is also the maker of CCleaner, I just found that out. :D

I do this all the time, glad to know a professional IT person does it as well. :P
Cool, sorry I am so late in approving this. I have been away from the 'net for a couple days :~D
