Thanks Peter. I've downloaded this tool now but it couldn't find the folders 
I'm looking for. Actually I have now tried version 4.0 of Handy Recovery and 
another utility called Get Data Back for NTFS, and none of them located what 
I'm after either. They found a lot of rubbish from a while back but any of the 
folders or files I want!

The two folders I deleted were my music folder and another folder that I keep 
some applications in. So, is it the type of files I'm trying to recover the 
reason that no recovery utility I've tried is finding them? I only deleted them 
last night from an external HD and nothing's been written on that HD since.

So any more suggestions please?

  System Recovery wont work as it doesn't recover files, just restores the 
previous configuration.

  I use a free tool called Handy Recovery. It doesn't even need to be 
installed, just run the executable and it will work. Did have to use a bit of 
JAWS cursoring though as whilst tabbing gets you to some parts of the screen, 
there are others which don't appear.

  Do a search on Google for it, that's what I did.

  Would not System Restore work for you?

    Right, in a genius moment I've managed to permanently delete two folders, 
two quite chunky folders actually. So, does anyone know of a tool that might 
help in recovering this lost data? I can ask for sighted help if need be. 
Please help! *miserable face*
