Hopefully, this is only semi off topic and allowed here. A friend has a
pc (dell running xp home) that has become absolutely unusable due to
the usual stuff (spyware, adware, virii, etc.). Of Course, she does not
have a backup of the irreplaceable files on it, mostly jpegs. I am
wondering if there is a way to physically connect the drive to one of
my Macs to get the files off of it?
I would prefer for the solution to be free, but if the only easy way is
using a external FW/USB case, let me know. And if anyone has experience
with putting a pc drive into an external case to access it on a Mac, I
would appreciate any warnings or preferably a slap upside the head with
the proverbial "Just do it, it is a Mac, it will just work".
Thanks,
Len

If you are not part of the solution, there is good money to be made in
prolonging the problem.
