It looks like a very good defragmenter. It defrag rather slowly. When it start to defrag my MFT, there is no disk activity for more than 15 min, I decided to CTRL-ALT-DEL my system to shut down the process. But it doesn't listen to my command, I press the HW Reset, and my partition can no longer be found. And there goes a few Gb of my data.

I believe you might have accidently downloaded the Free Trial Version of O&O Defrag V.2 Workstation, however, it doesn't say anywhere that it's compatible with W2k...

I say that because I've downloaded O&O Defrag 2000 Freeware Public Beta 1, which is officially supporting W2k, and there's no option to defrag the MFT...

I've defragmented my 3 partitions successfully with this software and like it better than Diskkeeper (diskkeeper was moving every single cluster around, even when the files were not fragmented and that annoyed the hell outta me!)

(i'm running Windows 2000 Pro French)
