Securely delete files from disks w/o the worry of unwanted file recovery

Check out my Jan.29, 05 post for another program very similar to Jetico's BCWipe program.

When you delete sensitive files from a disk on your computer, Windows does not erase the contents of these files from the disk - it only deletes 'references' to these files from filesystem tables. The contents of all deleted files remain on the disk and can easily be restored using any recovery utility (using the correct combination of 0 and 1).

Wiping is a term used to describe the process of shredding the contents of a file or disk space. It is impossible to restore any data that has been properly wiped.

BCWipeis designed to securely delete files from disks and other media. Standard file deletion leaves the contents of the "deleted" file on your disk. Unless it has been overwritten by files saved afterwards, it can be recovered easily using standard disk utilities. BCWipe is fully integrated into the Windows Shell and efficiently shreds file data so that recovery by any means is impossible.
