- Is anyone aware of a security program that is like the one in Norton
- which writes x'es or gibberish over areas on the disk without currently
- active files?
-
- This little security program does not seem to be available on
- local BBS'es or systems.
-
- I would prefer shareware or freeware, but if none is available
- then an innexpensive (under 20.00) option would be okay.
-
- Thanks,
- Charles
