- There are open source alternatives
I used to use PGP which integrated easily with Windows Explorer's shell. However, I always had a pesky service running from it, so I started using Eraser 5.7, which is open source and it works great. Don't get too caught up with the DoD verbage. Many secure data removal apps have it.

*CAUTION* In my personal experience, overuse of these apps can heavily strain your hard disks. Use only when necessary. Though I can't prove it, I believe both of my Maxtor hard disks failed, at least in part, because of overuse of PGP's disk utility.

- Great Program, but FREE version available
It is true that your data or files are not completely deleted when you format your hard drive. You can actually retrieve some of the files or datas even in DOS-mode. But this WipeDrive 3.0 actually erases all the data in the hard drive. It is indeed impressive. Even so, because it meets the standard of Department of Defense (DoD).

BUT, if you are a casual computer user, just want to sanitize and clean your hard-drive more than just a FORMAT level, you do not need this program. You can get FREE utility via download. Try free Active@KILLDISK version 3.0 (www.killdisk.com). But if you absolutely have to destroy all the data because of its sensitive materials, you should get this program. Note that FREE versions do not meet the DoD standard, however, it does more than regular FORMAT.

In sum, WipeDrive 3.0 indeed does what it claims. BUT for casual users, FREE utility in the web is more than enough.

Rating:

- A must have for any computer owner
Before you ever sell or even throw out an old computer or hard drive, be sure to buy this program! Even after deleting everything or formatting your harddrive, sensitive and personal information can still be accessed. This program will ensure that your computer is cleaned completely so that your information is really gone. It even conforms to Department of Defense standards! And the great thing is, is that it doesn't matter what operating system your using, since it boots right from the CD.

Adobe-Macromedia: Separating Fact from Fiction

The proposed acquisition of Macromedia by Adobe is not a done deal. Both companies are under the scrutiny of the SEC, and it must also be approved by stockholders. While Macromedia/Adobe gives this process three to nine months, some industry analysts feel that is being overly optimistic. But assuming that all is goes as planned, Macromedia will cease to exist. Everything will be in the Adobe name and with the Adobe interface.

Wee-Fi: Virgin America Formal Launch, Heathrow Coach-Fi, Laptop Recovery

Virgin America formally launches: Last week, Virgin America offered free Wi-Fi on its single Internet-equipped aircraft, My Other Ride's a Spaceship. Today, the service goes commercial ($10 for flights 3 hours or shorter; $13 for longer flights), and the rollout to other planes begins. Virgin has a special URL--http://wifitracker.virginamerica.com/--that takes you to a tracking page showing which flights in progress have Wi-Fi, but they don't yet tell you how to determine whether a given flight you'll be on will offer the service. With 24 planes and a plan to add service one per week, that shouldn't be a problem for long.

Heathrow Airport Coach Link adds Internet service: Icomera, a leading transportation Wi-Fi firm, has added free Wi-Fi to FirstGroup's RailAir coach service that connects Heathrow Airport with Reading in England. RailAir runs every 20 minutes for a 50-minute route. FirstGroup handles 3 million passengers a day across all its routes, which makes it a plum market for future expansion.

Awareness Technologies adds Wi-Fi positioning for laptop recovery: Awareness is the latest firm to partner with Skyhook Wireless to use Wi-Fi positioning to its products, in this case Laptop Cop, software designed to aid in recovery. The software starts at $50 for a 1-year license, with discounts for quantity.
