    For which programs are freely available.

    Hard Disk Scrubber is a program that overwrites all free space on a hard disk so that it may not be un-deleted. This will also securely delete files on your system so that they may not be recovered.This program is Freeware.

    I've tried this one personally, takes a few hours i'm afraid, but it does work.
