It is set up to make a layer image over your desk top! It fools you, so you believe that what your looking at is yours. So when you delete, your trashcan shows empty, but the real trashcan under the layer is still full & stacking by cache.
Examine your trash & look for another can. It will show it self after you open up down the chain of programs. Hard way to do it, but search I do not believe pulls it! I think it will read IE trash or something, verify that before you go deleting stuff. What it does next is take image shots of your desktop and pulses them out on a cycle through your modem. Modem security is most important and the hardest to get in windows.
Never connect direct use a hub connection.
The first set of the spy ware will be in your command setup.
best to copy all that after a clean reinstall and updates, so you have a base reference point of log files and command lines.
Crazy paranoid shit--- I hate that when it goes that way, Good luck on your endeavors.

Yes, it's true that deleting files from your Recycle Bin doesn't make them unrecoverable... what is deleted is the computer's reference to where the file is physically located on the disk. If you've got special software, and the part of the disk where the file was hasn't been written over yet, the file can be found and recovered.
I don't think the new law would endanger things you've got on your hard drive, though, as long as they aren't provided to anyone (i.e. not shared). I'm not really sure exactly how it works though... any lawyers lurking around on here? Law students?
