W32.HAWAWI.WORM - WARNING - Help required please
How were you able to recover the documents with only the titles?
In any case, if the virus deleted the data, the only way to recover is to
utilize a program designed for this; however, I am uncertain whether any
exist, but it is probable. Anyhow, programs could accomplish this because
when files are deleted, only the REFERENCES are erased, not the data. This
is because each of their names' first characters are replaced with an
extended American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)
character, which, I believe, is a Greek letter resembling an "O." However,
the data, no longer being associated with files, is subject to being
overwritten by other data.
