Somewhat easy, just find all the sectors/blocks/whatever not in-use and zero them out. This is VERY useful for donating older systems like Win98 systems that Microsoft doesn't support anymore. User can purge all personal files, then run utility and hand off system. thanks much, Joseph

Use Heidi's Eraser utility. It allows you to erase unused sectors. Download it here for free:

Hmmm, if data is really critical I would recommend Jetico's BCWipe http://www.jetico.com/. Not free (maybe included in the BestCrypt licence - can not remember), but written by people that have a lot more knowledge about sensitive data. I use their BestCrypt without any troubles for years....
