No.
So you're saying some info can survive a destructive recovery? If so, that could explain a few things, in fact, everything. Everyone I've spoken to has said that everything should have been gone...I'm confused. I was told that all old info would be gone, everything would be just as it was when I bought the computer. Nothing else from the old stuff seems to be there or am I not checking in the right places?

Greeting's
Is it possible for you to post a hijackthis log ?
-
I'd be happy to if you tell me how, sorry.

Well...I am not sure of a destructive recovery.......but unless it formatted the disk....those files could still survive.
Any way...why not just delete them???

Okay-the content in these files indicate at least gambling and at worst child porn. It's bad. I can delete them but if the content is valid, my kids and I need to leave home.

I have to go for now, kids are all home. I will be back begging for help asap -- thank you all

Jennifer my dear....
Grab a cold one or a nice glass of wine and chill for a minute...
There are a million files on your computer that have "odd looking" stuff in them. The question I have is what is soooo important about the contents of these specific files that you need to know their content? Explain that and we may just determine that there is no point in you knowing or we might be able to find a way to reveal the content for you. No point wasting your time over something that will not give you the results you expect.

Ok...now I see
Are you sure!!!!
How do you know it is child porn??? and not just regular porn???
What type of files are we talking about excatly...temp internet files???
Is this your husband you are talking about???
Is it your computer.....???
Be very careful...cause you are tampering with evidence............
and if you are concerned for the saftey of you and your children....then leave and contact a lawyer or the local law enforcement agencies...let them handle it
Its AMAZING what they can find on a computer....even after its been formatted

I'd be a little careful with leaving home because of this evidence unless there are other factors involved. This stuff can arrive in droves on a computer because of one misclicked link, a virus, a mis-firewalled computer or a host of other things.
Do me a favor, find one of the files that is small and contains the "evidence" and PM it to me so I can see what you are seeing please.
