    Theres almost no guaranteed way to completely remove data. Even after deleting, a skilled techie could find your files. and even after writing over files they are still sometimes reachable. The Pentagon shreds their hard drives for this reason. Heres an article on how to effectively remove data: http://www.microsoft.com/athome/moredone/protectpurgepersonalfiles.mspx
