Q: I don't veiw anything illegal but my girlfriend is moving in so I want to permanently erase all trace of sites I've visited. What's the best program or proceedure to accomplish this task?
A: If you want to entirely wipe out the hard drive and reinstall the operating system and all the programs on it then I suggest using DBAN (do a google search for it). Its a free wiping program which uses Dept. of Defense standards to wipe you're drive basically writing 0s and 1s to the drive. If you just want to erase you're internet seaching and recently viewed documents and such do a search for ccleaner. Its free.
