secure file deletion

Another one for you guys. . .

how about a secure file deletion ap (DoD 7 pass etc) that can be run from the right click contextual menus? Vista Home Premium x64.

Thanks again!

Re: secure file deletion

A free proggy like this one (32 & 64) can do the job: http://www.heidi.ie/node/6

thank you both, I've found that R-Wipe & Clean, an ap I know well from my XP days is compatible! Thanks for the help!

You're sure it is fully 64 bit compatible?

Re: secure file deletion

I've found one minor issue. I used to have it scheduled to run at shut down/restart. But, now, vista x64 gives me a prompt telling me is waiting to run, and can't shut down with the action pending. . .sure there must be a way around that, but not a major issue, I just have it set to do an auto run every 1AM now instead. . .
