another danger is of virii roaming rampant onto ur system thru this...Neways even I never worried abt that during my college times...just had too much time and will on hand to format the hdd on the occurence of the semblence of such a notion in my mind...but now the world has changed...have become just too lazy to do anything...dont take too much risk...buddha ho gaya hoon kya karoon

Well aptly said shantz But searching the viruses and cleaning them all is having a great pleasure in it,( As far as u r doing it for ur own system) See what the funny names those viruses have and more funnier are the names of satellites that cable operator used to select while selecting channels. (I saw one satellite named HotBird , and wished that cable operator select that particular satellite but bad luck) Even more funnier are the names for the servers I should not mention them here.
But after all viruses from hostels, the songs and movies does worth the risk |

Twas a bad day for me
Installed Linux on HD 1 Thought ki it'll take some time getting used to *nix, so decided to switch back to windows. Booted from HD 2, deleted the 1 GB swap partition... Woh to gayi hi but it also took the rest of the drive with it.. 
Now hefta recover 100 gigs of data and looks like I have lost more than 20% of it. 
So this is a suggestion to all the peeps who are planning to try out Linux. Be careful with the partitioning (even if you are an advanced user). |

hmm.deleting partitions is smthing u shud be wary of..cuz they automatically get assimilated with the adjacent partition and then both of them are lost instead of just the one u deleted...

I guess that was the mistake I made..
While making the swap partition, I added it to the logical drive.. Maybe thats why everything except the primary linux partition got deleted. Neways, I had some huge files (about 3.9 gig DVD Images). Any idea on how to recover those. Tried a few softwares... they are able to detect almost everything except these files.. Help! |
