    LOL? :confused:
    What the hell kind of security is that setup?!
    Someone just cut and pasted all of your stuff?

    I'd kick the **** out of them. :\

    And share some viruses dummied as more stuff.

    Hate to ask the obvious, but if everyone's HD is accessible, can't you just look on everyones and see if they have your stuff?

    You should still be able to recover a lot of what was deleted... don't reinstall anything on that drive (lest you overwrite recoverable data).
    I'm sure someone here can reccomend a good file recovery app.
    tbh I wouldn't share jack-shít on that network... disable the 'server' service and install a firewall.

    That's a pretty low thing to do :o

    In future, don't share your whole drive out, and anything you do share, ensure its set to READ ONLY. This way nobody can delete your stuff, unless they have an administrator password for your machine.
    Also, get a firewall. That network you're on sounds like a magnet for muppets with viruses.

    ya i had a firewall up, thanks, ill change all that stuff anyways to read only...cheers

    This is me tom you big boy! lol
    i don't think the system restore was a good idea :cool:

    So off to mary to find out who it is anyway...

    First before you decide to muffle his mouth with his ass make sure you find out if he has the stuff stored somewhere, you never know.
