As a partial solution/workaround to the problem, you might wanna check out
GoBack <http://www.goback.com/> from Wildfile. Runs on Win* and sits right
above the BIOS level between the OS and the harddrive...you can go back to
any (recent) point in time and recover any version of any file (subject to
disk space for the journailing), even if the file has been deleted. IIRC,
you can even recover from FORMAT C: with it.

BUT, and just in case, here is a list of all DAT (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
