nope. it wiped it clean. you can install some file recovery software and get it back in no time (just google "file recovery" and you'll get a million tools)

But in the meantime, it's better not to use at all the computer (don't shut it down, just leave it as it is), to minimize disk writings.

Its gone and now you need to use data recovery tools to recover your files.
This lifehacker article has review of Free Data Recovery Tools.
Best of luck.

Eclipse and Idea both have a mechanism to restore local history, this includes deleted files. Netbeans seems to have similar. Hope this helps.
You possibly can recover the deleted file by using the Refactor->Undo[Safely Delete] option.

In NetBeans select (highlight) the project that contained the ZIP file. Under Versioning, select Local History -> Revert Deleted. See if your ZIP file comes back. If not, you're probably out of luck.
Version control and backups are your friends.
