I have used Spinrite since version (if I remember) 2, and it is a 
really great check-and-repair program.  Especially noteworthy, it 
is written in assembly, so it KNOWS where things are, and it is 
FAST for the extensive amount of massaging it does.  I have no 
problem recommending it (and I am NOT the guy that wrote it!).
