" It provides Windows NT4.0/2000/XP with full access to Linux Ext2
volumes (read access and write access). This may be useful if you have
installed both Windows and Linux as a dual boot environment on your
computer.

The "Ext2 Installable File System for Windows" software is freeware.

If you currently have Windows running and you realize that you need
some files for your work which you have stored on an Ext2 volume of
your Linux installation, you no longer have to shut down Windows and
boot Linux!

Furthermore, Windows will now be able to handle floppy disks which
have been formatted with an Ext2 file system.

Linux Ext3 volumes can also be accessed. To do that, please read the
FAQ section. "
 
Yeah but i'm not interested since i don't use XP, 2000, NT :(

Dont forget a very simple program which does all what you say
since 20 years, explorer2fs. I never have to shutdown anything !
Don't need to read a FAQ, explore2fs access ext3 without
need to read a faq. So it' much better.
