If you want to erase information securely when you do a format of a disk, I would suggest using a program called Kill Disk. The program is free if you want to do a one pass format with 1’s and 0’s. If you want to do more then one pass, their is a cost for the program but it is relatively inexpensive.

For a link to the program you can go to http://www.killdisk.com/

I have as of now pulled my old The-Techshop.com web site. Going to www.the-techshop will bring you here. What I found is most people wanted information and links to free programs to help them with their computer security. The blog format will be easier for me to help people stay informed.

If you look on the right hand side, their is a links section which lists links to the most popular free ware and low cost commercial programs for computer security. This replaces the links section on my original page.

If anyone has any comments or requires more information, please email me at webmaster@the-techshop.com

Well I have decided to make one more web presence change. I am switching my security site to a blog format. I was going to rebuild the web site but have realized this is just as informative and easier to keep current and maintain on a daily basis. I will be adding links under the right side to point to the best free security software on the market. I will also be constantly pointing to updated articles and features for the technology field. As of Saturday, I will be re-rooting www.the-techshop.com to blog.the-techshop.com .

Besides these change, nothing else changes. All my email accounts and other web sites will stay the same.
