Actually, this is tenative at best. Though some have had success both 
reading from and writing to various NTFS versions, it's not really a 
safe thing to do. It's still an undocumented file system, and many 
typical operations fail disastrously. This week I wasted two different 
XP installations by attempting to resize the NTFS partition (shrink) 
with two different open source tools (PartitionLogic and GParted).

(mumble mumble mumble about the crap friends ask me to do on an os that 
I don't run.)
