Shredder95 Version 1.11
Shredder95 - Norton Can't Touch This!
Welcome to Shredder95, the ultimate software tool for removing sensitive data.
Whether you want to hide an embarrassing letter from a family member, prevent
coworkers' prying eyes, protect valuable corporate trade secrets, or hide
sensitive data from foreign governments (or even worse, uninvited hackers),
Shredder95 can sufficiently remove the data from your system.
We've received great reviews from such companies as Windows Sources
(Ziff-Davis), PC Answers, c|net, download.com/tv.com, winfiles.com
(windows95.com), and many others!
Here's why you'll naturally realize why they call Shredder95 the best:
How Shredder95 Works:
Did you know that 'normal' deleting of files simply changes the first letter of
the filename as calls the file's data 'available?' That's the same as changing
the first number of your home's address, opening the door and calling your home
(with all of its possessions left intact) "for sale!" Only when someone else
moves in will they remove some of your things, hopefully, eventually all.
That's why data retrieval programs such as Norton Disk Doctor are able to
recover your files, because they are still there until, eventually, used up.
If you have sensitive or valuable data, and you wish to remove it from your
hard drive, or diskette, the worst thing you can do is delete it. You need to
Shred it with Shredder95.
Shredder95, the engine, works by overwriting the file seven (7) times with an
alternating pattern of bits (the smallest form of computer data storage) which
not only stops all software programs from retrieving data contents, but also
helps to prevent physical magnetic data sensors from retrieving a proper image
of the data. This much is standard government regulation for secure data
erasure.
For you security buffs, the answer is YES, we are DOD-5220.22 compliant!
But, Stop! Start using Shredder95 and you'll see that it farther than that.
Shredder95 also truncates the file to 0 bytes, renames the file to a randomly
generated name, and then deletes it. This way, nothing can be truly retrieved
(name, size, or contents). For all software purposes, It's Gone. And, for
your overwhelming protection - we have a Professional SHRED option in our
higher edition.
Shredder95, the application, works by employing an easy-to-use interface where
you can drag-and-drop files & folders, as well as name them explicitly for
Shredder95 to create a list of files to Shred. (You can also tell Shredder95
to work in automatic mode, to drag-and-shred, without listing them first).
Options include prompting on error, including subdirectories, processing
read-only files, automatic mode, and password setting.
In a world of open networking and connectivity, Shredder95 provides an
invaluable service of helping to keep sensitive data from falling into the
"wrong hands."
You have an opportunity to jump in while we are still adding features.
Not only will you have the ability to use and review the software, but
also if you have ideas for this or the next revision, we want to hear
from you. And right now, you can purchase our current version
(which as been thoroughly tested for over a year!)
In the unregistered version, the program will allow you to Shred 20 files, but
it will pause after each file. In the registered version, you not only have
the ability to Shred an unlimited number of files, but also it will process one
file after another from your list of 'files to shred' quickly.
Additionally, you will be notified of your free upgrade to the public version!

(When you purchase, remember, there is no extra fee for the release copy -
