how to write a null bytes onto unused hard disk spaces? I understand that files deleted are still existed on hard disk, I am thinking of may be if I write the null bytes to every single unused bytes so that the unused hard disk space would be become all null bytes, and unused space would no longer contain of those deleted files.
How would i get a certain text inside a textbox to equal that text space to space or null to space?

Btw: after i finish this step my project will be finished!
