Problem with data.MYD

["Michael Roberts" <mroberts () hrmc org>]

I started experiencing problems with Snort running on Windows 2000 with
MySQL giving the following error message:

Database ERROR: Can't open file: data.MYD (error:145)

This happens when I try to delete an alert from Snort or view the
payload of a packet.

I have tried running myisamchk with the rebuild option and get the
following message:

myisamchk: error: data.myd doesn't have a correct index definition. 
You need to recreate it before you can do a repiar.

I have searched, but have been unable to locate how to re-create the
index.  My data.myd file is only 6 Mb, and I would not care if I lost
the data that was in it, I just need to get Snort fully functional
again.

Please advise.
