McAfee Shredder
When you save a file in Windows, it is stored in multiple pieces (in clusters
made up of multiple sectors) on the disk. Windows also saves a roadmap, or
index, that points to these clusters in two copies of the FAT (File Allocation
Table). The FAT contains the directions to all the pieces of your files, so that
applications can find them again later.

index, that points to these clusters in two copies of the FAT (File Allocation
Table). The FAT contains the directions to all the pieces of your files, so that
applications can find them again later.
When you delete a file, all the information stored in that file is not actually
erased from your disk. Instead, Windows simply frees the clusters where the
file was stored, making those locations available in the FAT. Thereafter,
applications can write new information to those clusters. This means that all
or part of your files can be reconstructed even after you delete them. Undelete
programs can reconstruct a deleted file very easily, especially immediately
after you delete the file and before you save any new information that might
be written over the deleted file’s contents.

For privacy and security reasons, you may want to be positive that the
information stored in files you delete is permanently erased from your
computer. McAfee Shredder does this for you by “security wiping” deleted
files so they cannot be restored or rebuilt using undelete utilities. Unlike other
file security erase programs, McAfee Shredder erases even the file name and
the compressed data on DriveSpace drives. Note that it is not possible to shred
network files, or files compressed with compression other than DriveSpace in
an absolutely secure manner.

TIP:
You can select McAfee Shredder properties to specify the shredding
level to perform. You can select Quick, which shreds the information
once, or U.S. Government Multipass, which makes seven passes of
repeatedly erasing the data.

Shredding selected files
You can shred files using drag and drop, which is a fast way if all the files are
centrally located. Or if the files are in several places, you can shred them by
starting McAfee Shredder and selecting the files to erase.
