Hi, James. Maybe you can help me out. A few weeks back, Powerquest had Lost & Found available as a free download. They posted a serial number to use with it. I tried to use it the other day for the first time, and I can't find the serial number I know I wrote down somewhere. Unfortunately, it's no longer posted at Powerquest Web site, and e-mails to them go unanswered. Can you provide me with the serial number? Before the flames start, please note that I am not a software pirate, and I would never do such a thing. But this one was a freebie with a publicly posted SN for awhile. Thanks, James.
