Default Problem with compressed file

Ok so here's the deal:

A week ago, I compressed some 7GB worth of files using Miliki Super Compressor Pro. That went fine, with Miliki cutting it down to 3.5GB which is just excellent in my opinion. I checked the .QCF file (which is the name of the archive that Miliki stores your compressed stuff in) after compression to make sure all the folders and files worked.

They did.

I moved the archive to my laptop and left it there until today. Today, I entered the archive and tried to delete two text files from within. The computer hung while the delete was in progress. I had to manually restart the laptop, and after doing so, the archive would not open. I've tried many different things such as running an undelete program on the original PC that it was on in hopes of restoring the archive that I had deleted originally from there. Didn't work. I don't think the problem is with Miliki, but rather that perhaps the data/archive got corrupted somehow when the system crashed while it was deleting the files.

So my question is: what to do next? Is there any way to save my important data? It is rather hard to find help about this online as Miliki is not well known neither is the .QCF file extension format.

Anyone have any ideas? They would be greatly appreciated... I'm at my wits end!
