Security Basics: Re: Forensic tool to recommend?

["Richard Lane" <lane.security () gmail com>]

I recommend the HELIX LiveCD distro.  It has both Windows and Linux "sides"
- booting from cold will give access to the Linux toolset, however loading
the CD in Windows provides access to a variety of Windows tools.

Good luck
