There are a lot of programs that are supposed to either encrypt your hard drive where no one can decifer what is on your computer. There are also programs like historykill.com which is supposed to erase all internet activity. I have tried this programs and it has a free 15 day trail download with some sneaky aspects if they actually work.
Do these programs really work if your computer was seized so any activities remain private? Or is there simple technology to by pass these types of programs?

WELL WISH I KNEW TOO?? BUT I DONT!! ID LIKE SOMETHING LIKE A SELF DESRUCT DISC YOU COULD PUT IN AND BOOM EVERYTHING IS TOTALY WIPED CLEAN NOTHING LEFT ANYWHERE.
GUESS THAT WOULD BE KINDOF LIKE THOSE SPYS TAKING POISON TO KEEP FROM REVEALING THERE SECRETS, NOW IF SOME ONE COMES UP WITH SOMETHING LIKE A SELF DESTRUCT DISC I BET THEY COULD MAKE A FORTUNE, BUT IT WOULD HAVE TO WORK MIGHTY FAST//
CAUSE IF A PERSON WAS DESPERATE ENOUGH TO DESTROY THERE OWN PUTOR, IT MIGHT BE BECAUSE SOME L/E WAS COMING IN THE DOOR
TO CEASE IT!!!!! HELP US OUT HERE YOU COMPUTOR WHIZ'S//
LATER GAGE I WISH YOU LUCK, I GUESS A PERSON COULD ALLWAYS
JUST BURN THE THING???? AND STOP HAVEING A COMPUTOR, IVE THOUGHT OF THAT MYSELF!!!
Because of my occupation I have first hand experience with your question but in reversed.
If somehow one of are employees accidentally looses there hard drive due to mechanical failure, software corruption, or even intentional formatting (that happened once). We can choose to send the hard drive out to a company that specializes in data recovery (the FBI has there own labs for this purpose, sometimes thats how they catch pedophiles)
For $1700 they will attempt to piece together as much info as possible from the damaged hard drive, but they cant guarantee results and most of the time the recovered data is in incomplete files.
There are ways to definitely make it difficult for recovery but your internet activity would probably be available from your ISP
