Looking for a Disk wipe utility.

I'm looking for a free disk wipe utility that is easy to use.

Any recommendations?

Sledgehammer should work.

I think the system mechanic thing had something like that.

That OT though...clearly there's a story here so spill the beans already.

Oh, off-topic, that's what you meant ... a colleague wants to sell her daughter's PC and wants me to prep it.

Then I wouldn't bother. Just do a full format not a quick format. Nobody is gonna recover anything from that...unless of course they happen to have a Magnetic force microscope lying around.
