Thanks Ian, installed it this morning. I like the new Drive Wiper functionality (have not tried it yet), waiting for someone else to try it.

I tried it, but panicky at start of doing so. Just in case it was on "wipe entire drive". But all went ok.

When Mr. Plod comes tapping on your door. If you've wiped or over-written your free space it'll be harder for him to watch your deleted pr0n.

An optimizer is a happy person who is tight with their money.
