Well i was going to get rid of my computer and i wanted to know what was the best program to use to get rid of all of my stuff. (hacking materials and all of that stuff) I have heard that there was a program called Decaf, that would mess a computer up but I'm not sure if it would clean a computer.
 
Well if you scan it with malware bytes' or something then it'd just delete all the hacking tools.

It isn't very smart to post the same thread on 2 forums, as you may get different instructions.

Yeah, sorry about that. And i have some personal information. I know for a fact that Malware Bytes won't take that off. Any Suggestions?
 
What do you mean personal information?

Such as Credit Card files, and stuff of that nature. I have some movies on my computer along with some illegally downloaded music
 
Your own credit card files ? Or hacked ones??
 
K.

Just backup the files you need onto a USB or something then clean your PC?

But i'm wanting to sell it and im not sure who will dig into the information.
 
There's no possible way to completely get rid of everything on a hard drive, without incinerating the hard drive itself. There are always computer forensics that can bring back old files.

I have heard of these programs, called Coffee. I have decaf a program that was use to counter-act Coffee.
 
Correct, you can't remove everthing...

But you can make it extremly hard to recover stuff off.

Do you wish to format you drive or just remove certin files...?
 
you cant remove everything but i doubt the person will go searcing and searching to find files like that.
