How did the DEA read my E-mail?

[krbn08]

I got arrested. The DEA seized my computers.
I did a 'disk cleanup' and 'defrag' before they took my computers.
They found incriminating E-mails and internet forms. They claim it was in the Temporary Internet Files on my PC.
How can I be sure shit is off my computer.. like this post?
(I'm using hushmail).

I'll look into this for you cause i have buddy that can wipe a comp clean.

Long story short, everything on the comp disappears with no trace (Viruses, data, info, storage, ect, ect.) i'll see how he does it.

There is only one guaranteed way and that is to remove and destroy the hard drive. Hard drives arent that expensive anymore, so if your worried I would destroy it and go get a new one.

hahahaha being in the security industry I can't help but tell you how bullshit that statement is bro... no encryption is completely safe.. including hushmail/cyber-rights etc.. they all run on PGP technology and the NSA has a backdoor into that also. So nothing is safe , just don't commit crimes.

*cough* Eraser *cough* (free also, overrites existing data including individual files upto I believe 18 times with binary = 1010's)

thats why you dont buy this stuff online ... the DEP or some other place will find you or once u get it get rid of ur comp for a while keep it at a friends or another familys house but just do the removeable drives and you should be ok but its too late for u

lol, you just don't know friend.. They have lots of bigger fish to fry there not out to get the small time buyer , but if they wanted to for WHATEVER reason they have the ability to do so is all im saying and I know the PGP backdoor to be a fact not some made up rumor.

Not trying to cause any beef bro just I know what the truth is and I speak it. This is part of my career field... Security.

Yeah there are encryption laws which limit the power of the encryption to be used by a software, mainly I assume so that if the FBI or whatever can still crack it to get info, I would say terr0rist activity would be the main reason, there is always brute force with only takes time In the end, just delete your temporary internet files and cookies regularly and you should be ok. There in IE tools/options ....etc.

If you ever have the worry of your PC being seized, then put in the windows disk and re-install, in the select a partition section, just create and delete it a few times if your really paranoid (may have to restart the install process) then format in NTFS (2k/xp only) a few times too, probably only take a hour or so to get it good.

Data can be retrieve from formated drives, but it is not easy, and you don't get it all and the more you format the less you will find.

As for the whole hushmail thing, it definitley safer to use it, and if they want to use it against you they have to also get a warrent to seize info from the email company you use too and if they wont give it up or there out of country there out of luck on getting emails on you.
