Corrupted Files

Hey there. I have yet another problem. A long time ago, I made a cartoon and finished it. I rendered the files overnight, and when I woke up, the video files were broken and all of my animation files for that project were all gone! Apparently, my hard drive was full at the time. I was able to recover the files, but I'm not able to open them. Instead, I get an error message saying "Bad file Header:"

A download for one of the files is available at http://www.cartoonzack.com/graphics/brokenfile.anme for anyone who is brave enough to try and fix it.

If you fix it, you can keep the character files within the file as a reward.
Please help me.

Is it corrupt because you edited the file with notepad?

No. It's because something happened when I retrieved the files from beyond the recycling bin. I'm not sure what had happened, but it was damaged through retrieval.
