Re: delete files w/zeros

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

let me clarify. It was only some 600,000+k mpg files that were found and
restored. This was after pgp was run twice; first with 7 passes, second with
3 or more passes. Then third pgp run with 2 passes and many of these files
could be seen and "restored" but they did not run. I did not try and fix the
mpgs after they failed to run. But know that they ran after the second
running of pgp.

The app that found and restored these is a free 200k exe that does not even
need to be installed.

what security?

get this: If you delete a file to the recycle bin, then later delete it
from there, then wipe drive deleted files with PGP, they can be found and
restored with simple free undelete apps.

wtf?

I tested this several times on two different partitions. Not all files can
be found and restored, but many can. Again WTF?
