Simple deleting a file doesn't help much because nothing is deleted. The disk space is beeing made available again to the system, but the actual bytes on the hard disk drive weren't changed.

The file system has to consume some time writing your data to the disk, but it doesn't have to consume time 'unlinking' it. It simply makes it available to the next best calling proccess.

A standard 'undelete' program can search through your hard drive's free space and restore your files. Writing new data on a hard drive minimizes the 'old data' to the point where your file system will ignore it. But forensic soft/hardware used against you will be able to read through.
