When you use one computer to delete files stored on another computer,
the files don't go into the Recycle Bin on either one. For that
reason, I recommend making shared disks and folders read-only over the
network unless you absolutely must have write access.

Turn System Restore on! If it had been on, running it on the computer
where the files were stored could bring them back. However, System
Restore doesn't monitor files in the My Documents folder.
