Re: Secure File Deletion Programs

Your husband has a gun <G>

I found a program on line - I think it was freeware - called Erase. Then seems I heard recently that the govt now has stuff to get even securely erased stuff back - go figure. If they insist on it back, I guess I'd use the Erase program several times over at highest wipe setting. That or find a really strong magnet.

Any recommendations? I have until Tuesday or Wednesday, and I'm
shooting for Tuesday, to securely delete all files off of two parallel
partitions (don't know the lingo) before my new hard drive appears. I'm
pretty sure Dell is going to want this hard drive back after sending
the new one since that is how they handled a sound card replacement.
