does anyone know how to erase certain files off of your computer for good?

does emptying them from your recycle bin not erase them for good?

actually, its reeeally hard to get rid of it (depending on what kind of computer you have). But for most PC's, there is a record somewhere on your computer that stays there with your hard drive...pretty much forever. Also, nona those "Internet Eraser" progams do jackshit, don't waste your money on that...they just get rid of temporary internet files.

you could fuck up the address to the file, the location, so that your computer can't locate it.. that's if you can't find any ways to delete it.

It will eventually. Your operating system will overwrite where the files were saved.

If you're that bothered, you can buy software that will overwrite where the file is saved, i.e. getting rid of it.
