I can not advise you on this program called EASEUS since I have never used or heard of it before.I connected the drive as a slave on my newer computer, and when I went to access it a message popped up saying it couldn't be accessed and was corrupted. Would it be worthwhile to use a data recovery program like EASEUS to see if I can get anything off of it?

If you feel you can save your data this way you can try it but I can not advise you on its use.
Usually people use a LiveCD from UBUNTU linux to access the contents of corrupt drives.
Try the program you mentioned above, if it fails to work, try using the LiveCD, you'll have to burn the ISO to a cdrom and boot from it and access the drive while it is connected to a data cable on the same computer.
Here is the link to the ISO image you'll need for burning a bootable LiveCD

If your files were in the Documents/Settings group of folders...and you received the "access denied" message...that's perfectly normal.
The way to overcome that is to take ownership of the files in those folders.
