Publisher's description of CyberScrub Privacy Suite Professional
From CyberScrub:
Privacy Suite deletes all evidence of online activity (pictures, videos, history, binaries, e-mail, amd index.dat), erases files beyond recovery (exceeds US Department of Defense 5220.22), and secures your sensitive data with strong encryption. It is used by many federal agencies, the U.S. Army and the U.S. Navy, and is VIA Padlock certified. The application supports IE, Netscape, Opera, AOL, Mozilla Firefox, MS Office, and most all P2P applications. It removes all traces of music downloads and newsgroups. An integrated scheduler allows the program to run "when idle" or at set times. It includes a permissions module to limit functions to users or groups.
Version 4.5 supports Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox 2.

Editor's review of CyberScrub Privacy Suite Professional
A good scrubbing
This utility proves to be one of the most powerful and flexible among erasers and privacy protectors. It has a handy interface: you can irrecoverably delete files using the right-click Explorer menu or by dragging them to the program window. Privacy Guard enables you to clean traces left in Windows (recently opened files, Run history), your browser (cache, cookies), and various applications such as ICQ and Windows Media Player. The most remarkable feature is that you can fully control which files and Registry keys are erased, as well as add your own items for deletion. CyberScrub uses several erasing methods, including quick wiping, NAVSO, DoD, and Gutmann, so you can find the balance between speed and security. The program also lets you create your own methods. You can define the number of cleaning passes and, for each pass, any overwriting pattern (byte or text, fixed or random); this is a rare capability for this class of software.
What's more, it's possible to shuffle the order of passes and verify the data has really been deleted. Happily, CyberScrub now offers a built-in scheduler so you can run time-consuming tasks when you're away from your computer. You can lock the program with a password so nobody can occasionally damage your files beyond recovery. CyberScrub is designed for professional use.
