Image and File recovery software

After somebody asked me recently if I knew of any software to recover images from a corrupt usb drive I knew that I did but couldn’t quite remember the name of said software – well after searching my hdd I found what I used last time and it’s certainly very good as well as being Open Source. It’s available here http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec

It actually works on many different file types – I used it to recover some images from a friends corrupt USB stick recently and it proved extremely useful.

Remote Desktop IT Support

I’ve just been researching the market for remote desktop support software. There’s so much out there now it’s difficult to know where to look. I like to go Open Source and found a useful list of free options here: http://www.wareprise.com/2008/11/28/list-of-free-remote-desktop-software-for-telecommuters/
