If you do control the app then just call the libraries to do the shredding or make a system call to shred or write your own shred routine. But keep in mind that on journalling file systems and most modern filesystems the shred command is not 100% effective since the OS may move the file without your knowing about it. - -- JT Morée PC Xperience, Inc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFJSZu1JwGi/ukQqERAjQNAKD8OkfUrkDUetNKl7d5qDZXldWe/gCg4K/C vHqAbDtYEZI49cFhska423A= =Rzq9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
