lost or deleted data in Unix?
Quote: "Until the space is used for another file, it is not deleted and the data can be recovered (although it may require jumping through hoops)." Unquote
I know this is true in the Windows world, but I didn't think it was true of Unix. I had always been told once it was deleted in Unix, it couldn't be recovered. However, unless Unix overwrites the data block with 000's when you delete a file, it should be recoverable. Do you know of any products available that will recover lost or deleted data in Unix?

Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ(3)
NAME
Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ - Fetch nzn stock quotes via Yahoo.
SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Quote;
my $q = Finance::Quote->new;
my %info = $q->fetch("yahoo_nz","DPC"); # Use this module only.
my %info = $q->fetch("nz","DPC"); # Failover with other methods.
DESCRIPTION
This module allows information to be fetched from Yahoo about stocks traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange. Information about indexes
is not available through this module.
This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object, although it can be explicitly loaded by passing the argument "Yahoo::nz" to
Finance::Quote->new().
This module provides only the "yahoo_nz" fetch methods. The author (stephen@vital.org.nz) will write a module to access the NZX site if
asked nicely.
Information obtained via this module is governed by Yahoo's terms and conditions, see http://au.finance.yahoo.com/ for more details.
LABELS RETURNED
This module returns all the standard labels (where available) provided by Yahoo, as well as the currency label. See
Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base for more information.
