It's been repeated many times on this reflector, but I'll remind you again:

1.  Configure DX4WIN to back up changes to your log.
2.  Use a battery-backed up UPS.
3.  Use a program like Iomega Automatic Backup to keep changes to your 
DX4WIN installation current on a second data source, like network drive, 
ZIP drive, CDROM or floppy.

That having been said, your log may be found in one of four places:

   ./dx4win/save/<call>.DXL
   ./dx4win/save/<call>.~XL
   ./dx4win/DX4WIN.DXB
   ./dx4win/DX4WIN.~XB

The largest file with the latest date will most likely have the most recent 
QSOs.

Good luck!
