I use the freeware Clean Disk Security
http://www.ozemail.com.au/~kevsol/sware.html

to actually clean free space on my hard disk so that files cannot be
undeleted. It can do a pretty good job or a NSA erasure method job,
which takes 7 times as long but is *thorough*. I schedule it to pop-up
daily and it takes just a few minutes, usually.

As for cookies, caches, temp folders, document histories, run
histories, find histories, CHK files, unwanted VCFs et al, I use
Window Washer from www.webroot.com

Just tell it to run every 'n' minutes and Bob's you uncle. It's
configurable so you can add your own filespecs to get rid of, which is
nice. (You tell it which cookies you want to keep and it then
periodically erases the ones you don't want)

I'm still evaluating System Cleaner 98
http://infortech.reedcs.com/products/systemcleaner/

It appears to do pretty much everything that Window Washer does plus
more besides. It's aimed equally at getting your free hard disk space
up and deleting the other stuff mentioned above. I'm obsessed with
keeping as much hard disk space free as possible. When I ran it, happy
with my free space, it found another 6mb. I was impressed.....

>If all that does not work, they'll just get the whole log of your activity from your ISP.

That's easy. I just hack in to Demon every night and remove my
activity logs. Just joking. ;-)
