Securely delete files and directories with Wipe File
When you first run the program, all of the menus will be in German, but Wipe File supports 9 languages including English. Just hit the Extras menu to find a list of languages.
If you're looking for a program that can wipe entire discs or partitions, you might wan to check out Wipe Disc, another utility from the developer of Wipe File.

Personally, I find this one to be much more useful - allows you to encrypt, decrypt and shred files from the shell context menu. Doesn't have as many options for shredding, but it's adequate.

Instead of funneling traffic, how about a link to the SourceForge project page directly?

Because, I had that link directly in front of me. The other would have taken two clicks. (A whole extra click) It's called economy of motion - I'm doing my part for the environment.

I use Ereaser for my secure deleting needs, and truecrypt for my storage needs, I wonder if there is an ereaser utility that runs off USB?

edward,
Yep. And it is a beauty:
Eraser Portable

If you like Eraser, I don't think there is any better USB-portable version that this one.
--Cheers!

Awesome, I'll have to get that portable version. I too am an Eraser man.

I just use the open-source Eraser. Works great.

I use eraser and R-Wipe&Clean. Never erase your sensitive file using only 1 pass. It still can be recovered using EASES Data Recovery Wizard. I recovered a lot of movie and still can play them well perfectly.
I used R-Wipe&Clean to clean free space on drive D using 1 pass. All files still can be recovered.
