Go to your recycle bin and see if they are there. If they are you can simply restore them.

Restore again, and copy to another folder. (Ctrl-A to select all, Ctrl-C to copy, Ctrl-V to paste) Work with the copy and see if this doesn't help. If it does, delete the originals.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist type of person, but are you sure you don't have some sort of spyware thing that would make your files "disappear" and then try to extort you into paying to restore them? Sounds rather fishy...

i dont know, wouldnt surprise me at all. i dont think both of my computers are conspiring together though, the photos disappeared on one and i (tried) to recover them on another since i already had the program downloaded.
