I don't want my personal banking info. etc. to be available on my linux mini laptop. I've looked online and the only software that cleans out files on hard drives etc. is for windows. I need help ASAP because I have someone wanting to buy it from me tommorow and I haven't cleaned the OS up yet. I can't wipe off linux and reinstall because I don't have the OS discs. So I just want to clean it up as best as I can. I have a ASUS EEE PC series and when I called ASUS they said I don't have a hard drive to clean up. Just memory and I should call LINUX support for help but I can't find a number for them. So if someone else knows how I can clean up my laptop b4 I sell it that would be great.
