The google's hits you mention do what I said in my last paragraph (first
post).
Recall that I said: In *general* there is no way. Noone of these tools can
succeed in all cases. And this is becuase Unix - and Linux based OSes in
our case - are multi-user Operating Systems. A free i-node can be used by
another user's process the next second you rm your file.
