I was using something called Evidence Eliminator and they describe that as “military grade” for irrecoverably. Not sure if that was the case though.

I think we all have had some previously deleted item come back to haunt us! I could really have done with this application 8 years ago! Definitely going to download this, as it is freeware I have nothing to lose (except the stuff I want to erase permanently!)
