    I have this stupid program called Unerase Wizard. So when I click Recycle Bin, it is empty, even if it shows that the Recycle Bin has deleted items. How do I fix this problem?

    uninstall the 'stupid program'. it sounds to me like one of those undeleting programs which never really work, and it will be fucking with the setting on your trash can.

    probably an option in the stupid program to view files. check there.

    why would you delete your pornography in the first place?

    The best way to uninstall it is to locate its installation directory, ie c:\program files\unerase wizard.. if you do manage to find it look for uninstall.exe or something similar.

    I never use unerase tools, they are meaningless and merely save the deleted items in an encrypted area until you seek retrieval, better to leave them in the bin

    Now I have another F*cking problem with Recycle Bin: Even after I uninstalled Unerase Wizard, I press "empty Recycle Bin", but after I do that, my recycle Bin also shows that it still has deleted stuff in it. What should I do?

    did you uninstall it or just remove the install directory? you should deletet it properly by going to 'control panel' 'add or remove programs' then select it in the list and click remove. that will clear it from the registry and any windows components its hi-jacked aswell.

    Sounds to me that you've got a icon cache glitch, where it shows you the wrong icon. I know this was more apparent on older windows systems (win98). You might be able to fix it using Tweak UI if you are using XP.
