Hi all. thanks for reading this...

I was in the process of cleaning up my "C" drive with old
programs, etc.
for some reasons, files that were related to IE browser
(favorites sites), Outlook .pst folder(my
calendar,emails, notes), AOL saved emails in PC, they
were all deleted.
I know I did not delete those individual.
I used the ADD/REMOVE function for those old programs.
none of which were those above.
one of the prgrams I was tring to remove was KAZAA and
the stuff that comes along with it such as PEERS MANAGER,
P2P, stuff like that.
is it possible that by removing those programs, it was
attatched to my files which was than deleted?
my question is, and I did a restore and no luck to bring
back the data/files.
is it stiff someone in my PC?? somewhere in "C"?
is it possible to retrive it back???
there are saved data and I wanted to keep and need :)

Thanks for your help with this.
you can also email me at (e-mail address removed)

Yes, it is not in deleted folder.

just for some reason, when I removed some old programs,
that was related to KAZAA. of course I didn't think that
would affect my Outlook.
all my personal Outlook files were just gone.

I want to know if its even possible to get it back
period.
or am I just wasting my time?

Thanks
 
Vince, if it might work, I'll give it a try :)
anything that might bring it back even if not all of it.
if you don't mind, can you give me more details of exactly
how to do that. that way, I don't skip a beat.
I am using XP Pro with OFFICE 2000
thanks!!!
 
Have you tried doing a search on "c:\Documents and Settings"? You must have
admin privileges to search through it. Good luck.
