If you Imaged her drive then there is nothing that would not have been
restored - so it appears you imaged part of her drive and that's always
a mistake. When you are going to clone a drive you need to clone the
ENTIRE DRIVE not just a portion of it - this would have eliminated your
problem.
Restoring your drive to hers was and is a mistake, cloning it, then a
wipe/restore and then restore datafiles would have been enough.

Learn more about PCBUTTS1 and his antics and ethic and his perversion
with Porn and Filth. Just take a look at some of the FILTH he's created
and put on his website: http://www.futurehardware.in/595578-2.htm all
exposed to children (the link I've include does not directly display his
filth). You can find the same information by googling for 'PCBUTTS1' and
'exposed to kids'.
