Which ext2 mount daemon on XP runs well?

[Reik Red]

(trying again, this time without making the mistake of hijacking a thread)

This is a bit OT, but I'm having troubles with ext2fsd (in the form of
"ext2 volume manager") on XP.

It works ok with just reading/writing files from XP onto my ext2/ext3 
linux partition,
but I use rsync to back up the linux partition to another one (external 
drive).

 From rsync there are seemingly endless error messages about 
"disappearing files"
(possibly caused by dangling symlinks), and also some sort of infinite 
loop of links
to my home directory. The net effect is that rsync does not work for me.

So: Is there anything I can do about this, or are there any alternatives 
to ext2fsd (v0.45. latest)
that will solve my problem? Thanks.

ADDED:

I checked on some of the symlinks, and in many cases they point into 
space (but make sense on another
computer that I use and sync with, so I do not want to delete them).

The problem seems to be that either ext2fsd or rsync is being too nosy 
about dangling links.
There is no problem when booting into linux and running rsync there. I 
have, perhaps errantly,
concluded hat it must be ext2fsd doing something strange, such as 
marking he symlink files as "bad"
because they point into space. I don't see any configuration parameter 
to change how ext2fsd handles this.
