App: Recover lost images from Mem Cards

Having just got the new Canon 400D and started taking serious pics again, I thought it might be handy to pick up a decent recovery prog for cards.
Clean forgot about it anyway until someone I mentioned it to before Xmas just sent me a link to a free app. It's not even an install - it's a stand alone exe.
Anyway, it's been running on an old 16MB Sony memory stick (I popped in the card reader and emptied it of files first) for about 15 mins and so far it's found 8 high res images and it's half way through processing.
Quite impressed.

Worth a download and put to one side in case anyhow.

* just finished - took about 30 mins and recovered 20+ images. :) *

PhotoRec is file data recovery software designed to recover lost files including video, documents and archives from Hard Disks and CDRom and lost pictures (Photo Recovery) from digital camera memory. PhotoRec ignores the filesystem and goes after the underlying data, so it'll work even if your media's filesystem is severely damaged or formatted. PhotoRec is safe to use, it will never attempt to write to the drive or memory support you are about to recover lost data from.
