NO but I do have this advice: Before using either back up your files. If there is serious damage, the software puts your drive in memory while it's being repaired. I made the mistake of repeatedly making it compare and fix until the finder ran out of memory. The program asked to be restarted - it was the only thing I could do -- and the contents of the drive, including the drivers, was lost. Thus I was left with an empty, unmounted drive. I fixed this easily of course but my person lost her newest email addresses because she had not backed then up since I last visited. I am now shopping for a Zip drive for her. This was the first time I ever lost data in a fix. Never again! Disk Warrior also does this so as I said, run what you want, but BACK UP FIRST. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
