To permanently erase files on your hard drive, download Eraser: http://www.heidi.ie/eraser/



To protect against viruses download these two programs:



Avira: http://free-av.com/



Spyware Terminator (turn off web security guard when given the option to do so): http://www.spywareterminator.com/



And install them.



(Avira claims not to have email protection, but as soon as a virus is set into motion it will be stopped, so no worries)



I'm suggesting these two because they're basically 'set and forget', and very good. Lots of people will suggest AVG, but get Avira instead, it has an advantage in most areas: AVG users tend not to know any better. Spyware Terminator is more effective than Windows Defender: don't run both at once.



EDIT: oh, surprise, a thumbs down from an AVG fanboy!



and another!

AVG is free.



To format (erase) your hard drive thoroughly Download KillDisk run that. but make sure to have your Operating Systems Recovery/Install Disc.



You can also format your computer with the recovery/install disc.
