IBin is a portable recycle bin for USB flash drives
Unless the item you deleted happens to be on a USB flash drive. Because the recycle bin doesn't cover those.
Fortunately, iBin does. It's a portable application that you can throw on a USB flash drive to create a portable recycle bin. Basically, all you have to do is download iBin, copy it to your flash drive, and run it. From then on, whenever you try to delete an item on your flash drive, a window will pop up asking if you really want to erase it, or if you want to dump it into your iBin.
You can then right-click the iBin icon in your Windows system tray to undo the last dumping, clean the bin, or open up the Dumping Management window where you can clear or recover (recycle) selected items.
The application is available as a free download for all versions of Windows.

Do you have to run it every time you plug it in?

No, you do not need to run it every time you plug it in. There is an option which you can enable that creates an autorun entry in the USB and start iBin every time a USB drive is plugged in.
I reviewed this app at AddictiveTips(thanks for mention Brad) and trust me it works seamlessly in 64-bit Windows 7.

Hi all. First I want to thank Brad Linder by the review done about the iBin. I had this idea more than one year ago, but a girlfriend, a new job and a broken foot mess up my mind completely. Anyway, I decided in the last Christmas holiday produce a gift to all people in the world and the project of a portable recycle bin came back into my mind.
I am very happy that is even working in the Windows 7 64x. I am a poor guy still using the computer which my job provides with Windows XP. I am still curious if really working outside my little XP portable world...
