    I recently removed Norton SystemWorks from my computer. I was able to find software to replace most of NSW's functions. However, I don't have anything for delete protection. Does anyone have recomendations?

    Do you mean something like making sure what you remove is really deleted?

    If you're talking about protection against accidentally deleting a file/folder when you didn't mean to, remember that the Recycle Bin is your first line of protection, because anything that goes into the Recycle Bin is not deleted --- it's sort of held in storage for you until you manually delete it. So, be sure that your system is set to automatically send deleted files/folders to the Recycle Bin.
