Well my guess is something is hosed with the disk that doesn't show up
with a scan or the directories I'm trying to get to are encrypted
somehow.  I can open the directories with Knoppix but it shows them as
empty.

Download a copy of knoppix.  Its like a  bart cd but has *nix on it.
It has a very easy to use gui like windows and try copying the files off
with that.  Should do the trick.  I'm on a BB at the moment so don't
have the link for it handy but google should get you there.
