Yeah files can be revoered, I hear big companies put can thousands into getting precious files back.
The best way is to format, but even that can come back,I know Mac OS X has a 8 time thing where it fills the drive w/ Random data 8 times, takes a while I imagine but it would take longer to recover, if at all.
What would you want to hide anyways?

LikeDislikeIt was called BCWipe. I read that Yahoo article and know exactly what you are talking about.
BCWipe software is designed to securely delete files from disks and other media. Standard file deletion leaves the contents of the “deleted” file on your disk.

LikeDislikeGo to your start menu…click programs…click accessories..click system tools…click disc cleanup…follow prompts.This will clean up your history for the most part but it will always be on your hard drive unless you get a program to permantly erase them.A good one is Evidence Eliminator.
