I had similar bad experiences with DOSmounter.  It seems to leave
desktop code that is eventually read by the PC and it decides the disk
is trashed.  Thats my semi-educated diagnosis, I could usually recover
the files but it took several screw ups before I reallized I didn't
have a batch of bad disks...mean while...my grade suffered.
