Trying to be IT savvy

Well, a bit of good news. Managed to retrieve four of the seven pictures I accidentally deleted from what I thought was the "server" in my company. The best ones are still lost but at least I've obtained some of them back although in low, low, low resolution...

Oh, I was told by the IT guy I didn't really store them in the server itself (which should have a recycle bin according to Rach if it's Window OS) but some data storage space we refer to as the "Temp folder" where data, once deleted is gone forever...Anyway(s), point is, can't retrieve it from the server/temp folder/data storage space.

I surfed around the Net yesterday and found an interesting website with information on how to retrieve deleted files from the camera memory card. Hmm...decided that was my only hope..followed the instructions and discovered the way to convert the camera memory card to a physical disk drive. All you needed was something call a "card reader" and you could run the software Davory/WinHex to retrieve the deleted files. So anyone who has accidentally deleted some important photos from your camera, all hope is not lost, especially if you haven't used your camera to take other pictures.

Only down point is, the files received are tiny, and you need to pay $$$ to get the full installation to retrieve them in high resolution. I heard that you can get crack codes so that you don't have to pay for the full software...Aiyo...mumble, mumble, jumble, IT garble...hehe..so much for being IT savvy!
