I recently destroyed my computer but I have the hard drive out of it running
in my new computer as a secondary non boot drive. I had phone numbers for my
isp etc. in there and would like to recover those if possible. I can't seem
to find a file with that info imbedded in it .... Can anyone tell me where
Xp sticks the numbers ? ANd if it is encoded is there any way to recover it ?

Check the disk for files ending on .pbk.

Rather than relying solely on technet etc, do your own
search. Get Windows to search all your files for the name
of your service provider. Easy!
