| Some time ago, Norton had a routine that would wipe the unused portion of

Norton/Symantec Gdisk.exe can wipe a hard disk but only the entire hard disk.
I don't know of a Gov't. specification to "...wipe the unused portion of your hard drive
..."
I think you need to be more concerned the actual data on a drive rather than the unused area
of said drive.
