Bad Sectors

Does anyone here have experience with 'repairing' or in any way  ridding themselves of bad sectors on their drive?

I pirated HDD Regenerator and it WORKS, but it will take weeks before it's done because several thousand sectors are damaged and it does like 1MB/hour. SpinRite doesn't work at all. Is there an alternative method or program?

If you have that many bad sectors, chances are that more are going to appear (there's probably a flake or two of the HD surface floating around in there getting in between the heads and the disc surface).
