Question Free Space Wipe/Cleaner...

My neighbor recently sold his PC and well he's had it for quite some time. He asked me what program would I recommend for wiping out the hard drive or free space so that no remnants of his remain. Course, I said I'll look into it so naturally this brings me here. He plans to hand his PC over on Friday with Windows Home Edition installed, working drivers and whatever packaged software came with it.

I am sure there are programs that do a really good job, but I have heard that FULL formatting, several times (I heard around seven) will do the job. Of course, that removes the OS, and so forth.

WinHex can do this (and much more). I'll cobble together something if you'd like.
When Smokers try to lasso him, he grabs their tongues and pulls them to HIM instead.

When Hunters jump on him he flips them over, pins them to the ground, and rips out their teeth one at a time.

When Boomers vomit on him he wipes himself off, shoots peptobismol into their mouths, and performs liposuction on them before splattering their brains on the wall.

When a Tank throws a chunk of concrete at him he rolls up his sleeves and puts on boxing gloves.

When a Witch gives him lip he pulls his hand back and slaps that bitch right in the mouth.

Would appreciate it Kaiten.

Nevermind, ended up using Norton Wipe Info "Government Wipe" method which took longer than expected but I think is good enough.
