jrollin, if you do that, you're still leaving the data on disk. The "file", (the pointer to the header of the file) may be gone, but the data is still there. You need to wipe free space.

To wipe the free space on a disk, I've been using an app called WipeFS.
Code:

Try Eraser 6.0 (an old version), or Recuva, by the folks that make CCleaner.
