Eraser will write 0s over the free space, up to 32 passes. I believe 7 is the standard used by the Government, so it basically destroys all the crap you have deleted.
For some reason this download isn't working. Will CCleaner really do the same job? Does it make my old deleted files unrecoverable (as in get rid of the Pr0n I've downloaded through the months)?

On a side note, I used CCleaner and it cleared out over 800MB of space. I had some serious shit on my computer.
