Wrong too! If you don't erase the old file bytes on the hard drive it will be easily read again. You will have to use a secure random to overwrite the bytes if you want your deleted file to be unreadable forever (like shred on Unix)!

Or you could just use www.encryptfiles.net

It gives you the option to delete or shred when you encrypt Smiley
