Answer 1

Haha Super important... kk you got 2 options. Come talk to my On yahoo msgr at [e-mail] or Myspace IM Myspace.com/fallenswarm

Lol i could walk ya thru or just point you in the general Direction?

Well if its not deleting it, you could try cleaning your Registry? my personal Favorite Registry Cleaning program is Ccleaner (c**p Cleaner) ill getcha a link to the site for download it, But anyway it will delete the trace of the file... but it can also Delete MANY MANY more things, Recent searches. Recent Documents. Trash  you deleted from the recycle bin that hasn't been fully erased? the list of programs you've recently used... Haha goes on and on, Basically wipes your history bro, Oh and one more thing its a LOT easier if you just make your own user and password protect it.. Lol they can't get on your user or check your history that way... Whatcha do is your business then. anyway its your choice. gimme a sec to find the link.

Answer 2

when you delete something it do'snt realy go it just gets flagged so your computer knows it can be written over.

so you need a file shredder using one will make your files unrecoverable.

here is one set it to do 7 passes they will never recover your files then...

as for the files already on there you need recuva it will find all your deleted files you can then use it to delete them permanently remember to set the ammount of passes before you use it to permenantly delete existing deleted files.

Answer 3

Number of places it could have been found depending on the capability of the person who was looking. Could have found information in the temp folder.

I think if the person knows enough about what they're doing. The only way is a reformat. Even then the hard drive will keep information.

Bottomline, if you've been on sites with naked children, smash the hard drive up to. Then jump off a cliff.

Answer 4

All information that goes into your computer is embedded in your hard drive.Even if you wipe your hard drive,it is still there and can be retrieved,but it has to be done by someone who really knows what they are doing.To do this,they have to remove your hard drive.Sounds like what you are talking about is someone hacking your machine.
