Well, you brought back memories with the delete w/ binary zeros.

I was a S/36 P/A way back when with a company that did its own payroll.
I forget the security scheme on that box, but they didn't believe me
when I told them I could see the payroll file regardless of the
"security".  Find out where the file was located and dumped the disk.  I
really love witnessing those eye-opening moments.
