Windows Incident Forensics with Knoppix Helix

Daehenoc writes "After finding Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery while looking around for forensics tools, I found this instead: Helix Incident Response and Forensics. It's a customized version of Knoppix which you can use in an online or offline style - put it in when Windows is running and you can retrieve a stack of useful information and send it to a network share. Or boot a suspect system with the CD and get access to useful forensics tools like sleuthkit!"
