Ext2read 2.1 released



we are pleased to announce a new version of our ext2read project
which we created 6 years ago. we were motivated to redsign and rework the project after i installed
the new ubuntu karmic. By default it used Ext4 file system with Extent feature enabled. we could not find any tools to read ext4 filesystems from windows . So we went ahead and wrote this program.

FEATURES:
Simple UI designed using QT4.
View/Read Ext2/3/4 partitions.
Recursively Copy the entire folder or even /
Support for external USB disks.
Support for disk and filesystem  images. For eg. Wubi users can just
open their root.disk file through this program.
LRU based Block cache for faster access.
