Software to Copy from a Damaged Drive

Is there a program out there that will attempt to copy all of the data from a certain folder, or drive and just give up on the stuff that fails?

Let me be a little more clear. I have a harddrive that has failed and cannot boot on its own. I've set it as a secondary drive on another computer and am now attempting to copy as much of the data over as I can. There are many many directories and files however, and windows xp apparently stops copying a directory over as soon as one of the files within it fail. What I need is something that will allow that file copy to fail and continue with the rest of the files.

You might try some of the utilities on the Ultimate Boot CD
