Although, I can not gaurentee this is correct, but it WILL stop Undel
from PCTools, Undel from nortons, and undelete from dos. (tested) Although
I don't have the time to play around with a sector editor:

    { DOS will normally keep the rest of the file name, and just truncate
      it with a null. But when the full filename is renamed then that can't
      be done. Then it renames it to ~ so that undelete will just show
      a question mark, and same with a sector editor on the hd }
    rename(f,'~~~~~~~~.~~~');
    rename(f,'~');

    for loop := 1 to sizeof(buffer) do buffer[loop] := random(256);

    { Then we must completely rewrite the file, starting from byte one
      to the filesize, completely erasing all sector data. Very easily
      done, using a random buffer to write with. }

      leaving it a measly 0 bytes }
