Quick-Par is an open-source program that employs the par2 algorithm to create recovery volumes which can be used to recreate partially corrupted or missing files from a set. I use it to make backup volumes for files burned to data DVDs so that screatched or dirty discs can be recreated using only part of the missing files. It is also useful when downloading music or video from Usenet to form files with missing messages.

To download Quick-Par or read about what the technology is and how it works, head to the Quick-Par Official Site.
