Before you throw away or sell your old computer.....

did you remember to DOD it 7 times?

seriously, if you just do a "regular" format, someone can still recover EVERYTHING!

so... thats including your credit card information

to be safe do a DOD format with a program called WipeDrive

WipeDrive is listed as an approved disk sanitizing solution by the U.S. Department of Defense! Please contact sales for supporting documentation.
Now you KNOW how to be safe
