Ever had to read an HFS partition on a PC? from what I found - HFSExplorer is the best option out there (and of course, it is free). The downside is that it is a standalone application rather than a ‘driver/plugin’ so you can’t mount the partition - which wouldn’t be a big deal if the app would let you browse the tree while copying. Better than nothing…

Finally a solution to this annoying bug (feature?)!
If you’re using Firefox+TabMixPlus and the new edition of GMail (which is now available also for Google-Apps users) you must have noticed that Gmail stops functioning entirely after downloading an attachment. Hitting back doesn’t resolve this, so you must reload GMail entirely.
To avoid this:
1) In FireFox - click on “Tools”
2) choose “Tab Mix Plus options”
3) “Links” should open by default, select it if not
4) Click on “Edit…” next to “Prevent blank tabs when downloading files”
5) Remove the line “/disp=attd&view=att/” from the list

I was excited to share my discoveries about how to upload files in an AJAX-like manner (without refreshing the page) but this guy did such a good job - I just decided to link to him… (see: http://probonogeek.blogspot.com/2008/05/ajax-file-upload-cake-is-lie.html)
