 Um, This was mentioned in an Amiga World issue (I'll have to check though).
It's not a bug in MV. Its a bug in amigados. Amigados allows you to move a
directory into one of its own subdir's, which it should not allow this to 
happen. However, it does and unfortunately kills everything in the directory.
I'm pretty sure there is no way to easily correct this (however try 
DiskSalvage and as a last resort DiskDoctor) at least AmigaWorld (i think)
gave no solution (but said to avoid doing that)

 I'll check my back issues for the exact acticle. Until then try DiskSalvage.
