Secure file shredder recommendation?

[Vol4Ever]

Not looking for anything fancy or extremely full featured. I just want a basic file shredder for security purposes. The main 3 requirements are:

1 - Inexpensive (preferably $20 or less; freeware or shareware would be awesome!)

2 - Integrate into right-click menus for on the fly, secure file deletions

3 - Relatively fast operation

Any recommendations of software to check out? TIA

Vol4Ever,

GiPo Utilities has an excellent utility "Move On Boot".

It is accessed by right clicking your file--properties--GiPo tab. Just follow the prompts. Removes files quickly.

Hope this helps.

Also,

You are able to remove, most of the time, stubborn files that normally will not delete.

That's a pretty cool utility, but I'm not sure it's exactly what I'm looking for. What I want is a file shredder which securely deletes files with no chance of recovery. Thanks for the link, though.

Free Tools like Spybot Search and Destroy have an inbuilt Shredder (

or something like CCleaner here:

Have a look at this page for inbuilt XP tools.

Webroot's Window Washer is another tool but it's not free (

SDELETE from Sysinternals. My favorite.

I recommend CyberScrub's Privacy Suite 4.0 (

which I use.
