no guys what I am looking for is a Mil Spec File Wipe Utility what it did is
not only remove the file but then overwrite the sectors that it took up on
the disk. When writing using military classified data all information had
to be removed from the machine, making it unrecoverable. I have been helping
set up referbished machines from businesses and just wanted to afford them
the same security
thanks
