In my opinion, the only way to safely remove personal information and documents from a computer will require a boat and proximity to an ocean or the great lakes. Working for a Federal law enforcement agency and with their experts in sector technology has taught me that there is always a way to recover data once it is placed on your hard drive. Perhaps this program would give someone piece of mind and prevent an amateur from recovering the data, but not an expert in recovery. I also read a posting on another site concerning this particular program and it indicated that one person experienced unrequested deletion of some information, but it came back whey they did a system restore. Thanks for taking the time to post OP; however, I have decided to pass on this one for my computers.
I downloaded this, and the frickin' thing went all HAL 9000 Space Odyssey on me and started automatically trying to delete EVERYTHING. I'm not a novice computer user. I had to over ride it and uninstall it piece by piece because it actually hid itself in my C drive just like a trojan virus would. XP uninstaller wouldn't remove it; I had to manually clean each scrap of it from my computer.
Also, despite the miserable experience listed above, it said I only had a 3 day license when I received the alleged '1 year' key from 'Giveaway of the Day.'
BTW, I also heard CCleaner does the same thing, and that many people who used this had everything that was supposedly deleted permanently come back with a system restore (as someone previously mentioned).

Based on that, I decided to skip downloading it and save myself the unnecessary headaches.
