It's not an XP machine - it's Win98
I deleted everything "questionable" last night. I really didn't have all that much - just some websites loaded in there, but it's enough where I really don't want them seen.

How hard it is to grab things back up and can they do it accidentally?
This is a 400mhz Celeron laptop with 64MB ram. When I put out the batcall to family that it was up for grabs, my brother mentioned this has better specs than her current desktop. IOW, we're not talking big computer user here.
Choadog - I want to leave SOME things on there - software and such. Will the low level format get rid of everything?
