It's not lost forever, but it might be interesting to see if you've got 
a newer version of it.

I've just checked the version I've got and it's v1.0 beta 1. The only 
company mentioned is VersionSoft, who were the French group that 
created MouseDesk, as well as many early productivity packages for the 
IIGS - Paintworks Plus, Paintworks Gold, List Plus, Draw Plus, etc.

DiskCopy should work fine if there is no copy protection and if it's 
still a beta version, it's not likely to have it. It's best to convert 
to a 2image or ProDOS order (.PO) so there's no problem using it with 
all emulators.
