Hi Guy's.

I have a major problem and of couse it has to do with the bosses PC just my luck!

I copied some digital camera photo's in jpg format to his hard drive a few days ago and all went as normal you could view them with no problem. Today he went to view them an all it displays is a white box with a red cross in it. I tried to recover the pictures with JPEG recovery 2 with little success it fixed 3 out of 30 pictures. I tred to rename them stil no good. Tried differnet picture file extentions stil no good any ideas?

Sample file here http://www.mp4direct.org/images/P1010285.JPG

That looks like an image download placeholder.
I suggest you do the Pre-Work and let the Security people do their thing.
Do you still have the pictures in the camera?
Have you saved the pictures on any other computer?
If so, can you still view the pictures on the other computer?
