CCbeaner

Thanks guys! I did do a fully NTFS format, but I understand that people may be able to recover from that. So I did perform a 1 pass 0 erase for empty space. What I am paranoid about is that the essential Windowsfiles which overlap the old recoverable files were not overwritten with 1 pass 0. Or am I really just going into paranoia here ?

Hi Everyone! I'd just like to say that CCleaner is one of my most favorite utilities! i do have a specific situation here, maybe advance users could help me out? I recently sold my netbook which I had freshly formatted and then ran CCleaner for one pass 0 on EMPTY SPACE. There was a previous Windows 7 installation with the possibility of holding critical files. The disk writing completed, but I was wondering how reliable it is since I had written over ONLY the empty space and not the essential files.
