and both 7.1 and 7.2 beta, downloaded either through ff or safari are declared damaged by my machine, and won't run them.
What is being declared damaged? The compressed file that's being downloaded, or does that download and expand OK, and it's when you try running the tool from a terminal window?
To run it, you need to open the Terminal app and run it from the command line prompt. You can drag the "photorec" tool file from the expanded download to the terminal window and it will fill in the complete path to the file and you just need to hit return.
This gives more directions on how to use it.
