Does anyone know of photo enlargement software that can faithfully enlarge 640x480 photos to 1280x960? Or software that can fix damaged digital photos?

I have a set of photos that I took with my camcorder. The maximum resolution on the camcorder for still pictures is 640x480. I'd like to enlarge these to 1280x960 for printing. I can print them now, but unless they're wallet-sized, they'd look horrible.

I have another set of photos that got damaged due to a disk hiccup. It looks like the photographs are missing a pixel or two, and the color information changed after that missing pixel. That's about the best way I can describe it.

It's worth noting that while you can do any sort of resizing you want, you cannot *add* resolution to a photo. If you resize a 640x480 image to 1280x960, you've only increased the dimensions, but it's still a 640x480 resolution image.

That said, I use Photoshop on my Windows box, and Gimp on Linux.
