A friend of mine passwords everything including individual files at home. He has a dial up connection and only he and his wife live there. I've asked him why he does it and he said he doesn't want hackers getting his financial information.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

Iskallin, reinstalling windows doesn't hurt your ability to read files from the disk, unless you used aggressive file-protection schemas, which I don't think you did It's the last-case scenario though due to how long it takes to do ... but it's not that bad.
Alternately, take the harddrive out and put it in another machine that can access it but boot off of something else... the files are still good But laptop HDDs are a pain ...<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

Get an external USB mass storage case for 2.5" HDDs. Put the HDD from your notebook in there and connect it to another PC. Copy the data you need.
Put your HDD back into the notebook and reinstall windows (you can try to repair, which should not erase your files, but I am not too sure, so that's why you should have backed them up first using the external case).
