So, if I'm not running the profiler at the moment that actuall event of
droping/deleting the database was taking place, I have no way of seeing what
happened.

The funniest thing is that the missing database was published for
replication, so you can't just delete it from the EM. If you try to delete
the file from the disk (using Windows Explorer, for instance), it will tell
you that the file is in use (because SQL server is using it).

But, SQL server was running all the time (uptime is more than 6 mths), and
the database just dissapeared. No .mdf files found on the disk, no errors
(that I can find) on the SQL server. If I run the NTFS-Undelete utility (i
tried several ones) I can find dozens of deleted files (some were deleted
more than 6 months ago!), but none of the files are my database files.

At this point of time I have no way or knowledge to explain what exactley
happened.
