Thanks for your comments. I'll read the CCleaner documentation and see what 
this is all about.

"I was looking at the latest version of CCleaner (www.ccleaner.com)...
and came across a very interesting option... "wipe free space"."

Unless the wipe process uses two passes or more of psuedo random noise
it will only deterr the more casual theft of data.  It is possible (at
government and national level presently) to posess the facilities to
recover data buried beneath one subsequent write of data on a hard disk
(but not much further).  If you really want data to be safe from others
encrypt it.

Regards.
