It
could be possible in theory, yes. But the chances that you would be able to do that are extremely slim if not non-existing at all. By the time you want to recover the deleted file, there already have been extremely many other disk write operations, which simply overwrote the file.

yes, memory mapped files. But this has other big disadvantages and I'm not even sure if you would be able to decently load them in MSIE in the first place. I don't see why you wouldn't use a temporary file though. If anything, a simply overwrite to the file would be more than sufficient.
