Ahh. A client's folder. I can see you would be most anxious to recover it. 
Normally trial versions of recovery software allow you to browse 10 or so files 
so you can verify that the fully licensed version is likely to do the job for 
you.

If you must retrieve the data there are some data recovery outfits around 
Perth. They will, however, charge you much more that $100.

Good luck!

Carlo
