Fedora 5 cannot boot because of corrupted /lib/libcrypto.so.6

I had accidentally corrupted my /lib/libcrypto.so.6 file on my Fedora
Core 5 laptop and now I cannot boot. It just spins forever on a black
screen with a cursor in the middle of the screen. How can I restore
the corrupted libcrypto.so.6 file so that I can bring my laptop back
to life again?

I really need the data that is on the disk.

Thanks
