Description of East-Tec Eraser 2004 program from Softdepia.com:
East-Tec Eraser 2004 ("Eraser" in short) is an advanced security application for Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP designed to help you completely eliminate sensitive data from your computer and protect your computer and Internet privacy. Eraser introduces a new meaning for the verb TO ERASE. Erasing a file now means wiping its contents beyond recovery, scrambling its name and dates and finally removing it from disk. When you want to get rid of sensitive files or folders beyond recovery, add them to the Eraser list of doomed files and ask Eraser to do the job. Eraser offers tight integration with the Windows shell, so you can drag files and folders from Explorer and drop them in Eraser, or you can erase them directly from Explorer by selecting Erase beyond recovery from the context menu.
Eraser is also able to completely destroy any data from previously deleted files that might still be accessible on your disk, in the Recycle Bin or in unused disk areas. Eraser can also remove sensitive information stored without your knowledge or approval (evidence of your computer activities, texts and pictures from sites visited on the Internet, the contents of deleted e-mail messages, etc.)
The extensive erasing capabilities of Eraser make sure that not even a trace remains after erasing data. Eraser has a lot of erasing (wipe) methods, differing in speed and security. The fastest ones offer normal security and can stop software recovery tools. The slower ones match and exceed the specifications of the U.S. Department of Defense and can stop even the most sophisticated hardware recovery tools. If you are not satisfied with the existing wipe methods, you can even define your own wipe methods. Advanced features like verifying each wipe pass and each disk operation allow Eraser to intercept any failures and inform you if data is not successfully erased.
With Eraser you can also erase entire folder structures (folders with all their subfolders and files) and even entire drives. Features like the possibility of collecting multiple file specifications (e.g. *.tmp) turn Eraser into a clean-up utility. The command line parameters allow you to use Eraser from BAT files or from scheduling software such as SystemAgent. Eraser has a very intuitive interface and it is very easy to use. Offers tight integration with the Windows shell (drag and drop and integration via the Explorer context menu).
East-Tec Eraser 2004 is a "Free to try" program. You can download and try it for an evaluation period.
