Hey, i got an even better program. It's free and will GARANTEE 100% removal
of any information that can incriminate you. It's called format.exe and even
comes free with windows!

and 0's, deleting, writing all 0's and 1's, deleting, repeat 10 more times
and then drill holes in the disk or placing in a compactor.
Rule of thumb, anything you don't want found on your hard drive or
disk.....don't put there....It can be retrieved.

regular software every time you d/led something that was just a little bit
dodgy?
I think the point of the advertised software was meant to mean that you can
destroy just the selected files, not the whole lot.

a drive letter for you dodgy stuff. Then you can format that as necessary.
Not that i have experiance of course.

No but you should be able to do it through your bios screen (pressing DEL
on startup)

hilarious for someone to spend a ton of money on magnetoresistive microscopy
(or somesuch) and slowly the data emerges: a zoomed-in closeup of <pick

drive will still be there (partial bits) due to the magnetic surface.
That's why the government/any high security industry writes the 1's and 0's
over the entire drive so many times. Doing this will cover most if not all
of the magnetic surface. The holes or compacting (both distortion
techniques) make it even harder to read.

Well, fdisk is even worse as it doesn't delete ANY data except the partition
table.

Well, i hope no actual BIOS will EVER have such a Function. Or do you _want_
to render your Harddisk unusuable?

fdisk'ed and formatted HD's _do_ still carry about 99.99% of the previous
existing data with them.
uray

It used to be a common BIOS function, back in the days of MFM and RLL
drives. Most modern IDE drives can't be low level formatted, most SCSI's
can though and a low level format *is* built in to my SCSI BIOS.
uray

If you are using Windows it's considerably easier than that. Fdisk just
rewrites the boot sector and partition table, while format just rebuilds
the File Allocation Table and directory structure and writes new sector
ID codes. Neither program overwrites any data on the vast majority of
the hard drive. Just do a sector by sector read, and there is your data.
If you run WipeDisk even once, recovering the data becomes a whole lot
more difficult and expensive. Wipedisk does a sector by sector
interleaved random write of the entire drive, including unformatted and
unpartitioned sectors.
