It you are using XP, do the following:
Tools - Folder Options - View. Make sure that you are able to view hidden and system files.
You will then find a hidden\system file called Recycled. Your deleted information will be in there.
However, you will need to go to www.download.com to get a program to decompress it. This decompression could take over an hour per mb.
Also, using this method, you will not be able to recover all data. The data that you recover also has a risk of been corrupt.
This will not work if you have formatted the USB Drive. Also, If you have Windows XP system recover disabled then this will not be there.
