        What if someone is using the NTFS file system?  How many time would one have to
overwrite the data before it became
unrecoverable?  Would say PGPs wipe function be more effective on flash media
then on an actual HD/floppy disk?
some industy standard (not sure) it is 21 times.but diff standard has
diff times to overwrite.so checkon google for more.although more u
overwrite much better it is :)
