Hey all -- Looking for freeware like Evidence Eliminator 0r Snitch -- I
understand Snitch is more thorough by wiping all photos etc.

Is there any program that can wipe all my tracks so they are not recoverable
?

Cut the following, save as a batch file in your root directory call it
fix.bat or something.
You can change the wording to fit your setup if your directories are
different, etc.

echo off
C:
cd \windows\history
deltree /y *.*
cd \windows\tempor~1
deltree /y *.*
cd \windows\cookies
deltree /y *.*
cd \windows\temp
deltree /y *.*
cd \

Put the following line as the FIRST line in your autoexec.bat file:
call fix.bat

This works because it cleans up BEFORE Windows loads ...

Thank you Troppo. Note should be made that this is for Windows 95 and 98
only.

And how, pray, does that do what he wants - i.e., wipe his files so that
they are not recoverable? RTFP!!!

When Windows loads it will rebuild the deleted index.dat files, not guaranteed
that the same area of disk is used, of course
 
It is not wise to put this batch file or commands in your autoexec.bat
or startup folder. Some applications, when installed leave files in
the temp folder to be run after a reboot. If you have this batch file
run on every boot, these types of applications will not install
properly. Deleting the history, cookie and temp internet files on
every boot is generally OK, though.

In other words, it wont. Thank you. Better he use a secure delete utility
like Eraser or BCWipe.

As long as these run under DOS - the index.dat files are locked in Win 9x.
I tried Washee but could not get io erase even the erasable files ....

Spider, then.

spider can get at them, but I don't think it does a secure erase.

MRUblaster does a secure erase, but it only does it for some of the
index.dat files.

Perhaps you should use a bat file at startup to delete ,but instead of
the normal delete use the dos version of eraser to delete the index.dat
