I sometimes run Evidence Eliminator, seems to do a decent job. But if the
FBI is as my door, i think my 1lb magnet would do a better job of cleaning my HD of evidence. "Matt" wrote in message ... lol "yzdfix" wrote in message ...

There already is a rare earth magnet of even higher strength inside your HD. The thing is that the magnetic field doesn't reach very far, so you have to open up the HD to demagnetize it that way (at least the middle platters), in which case you would do a much better job by simply scratching the surface. That said, there's companies (like IBAS) who specialize in recovering HD data even if erased by magnets, multiple overwrites, physical damage or even fires. There's no recovery from an acid bath, though. Please consider this a public submittal of the invention of a HD with a built-in or attached acid or otherwise damaging bath or spray that can be triggered mechanically, by timer or through software. There, now at least no big company can patent the idea... With Kazaa and Verizon winning major court battles, file sharing might boom again, and a "Marauder" drive might be of interest. :-) Regards, -- *Art |

They don't come back ;-) FRH Probably the best advice... It'd be so costly to locate and recover that it would most likely never be done... However, a slightly better alternative would be to look into encrypting your valuable data. I have a linux server on my home lan that holds valuable data on an encrypted partition. I've got it setup so that there's an encrypted filesystem inside of an encrypted filesystem. To mount both filesystems you have to know the pass phrases... If you don't know the pass phrases and you want access.... you're in for a long work out... :') A part of the passphrase mechanism is a randomly created key that resides on disk... at anytime I feel it necessary, I can delete that key, unmount the encrypted device and even with my passphrase, no one will ever get into the encrypted data, not even me. -- ************************************************** **************************** Registered Linux User Number 185956 http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...ff&group=linux Join me in chat at #linux-users on irc.freenode.net This email account no longers accepts attachments or messages containing html. 10:07am up 81 days, 15:00, 8 users, load average: 0.14, 0.11, 0.05 |

You want me to be buying all new hardware. ~~~~~~ No, I want you to be alert enough not to get a virus in the first place. As for viruses ruining hardware, that's old news. There was a bootblock virus for the Amiga that played "El Condor Pasa" (really!) using the stepper motor of the floppy drive to produce the sound. Needless to say, after a few minutes of that treatment, the drive was more than likely ready for replacement. Then there was the old Apple II flaw, where a trojan could poke a value into a firmware register that would cause a chip to overheat (and possibly the motherboard to catch fire). In similar fashion, there's PC viruses that mess with your display, changing the horizontal and vertical refresh rates gradually, which can cause real physical damage to monitors. Regards, -- *Art |
