Since others will mention the other ways of doing it, I'll support my company. :) At www.whitecanyon.com, you can buy the Free as in "Not at all free in any way" program called wipedrive. This will create a boot floppy that will wipe your entire hard drive, partitions and all. Nice little program. -- Derek M Davis [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------ Not ignorance, but ignorance of ignorance is the death of knowledge
