Wow, thanks for the info! It seems that the best bet would be to use VeraCrypt for encryption, keep BCWipe running in the background, and wipe wth another open-source program (that is reputable) before logging off.
I have just 3 questions if I may:. What do you mean by 'disk slashing'?. If I buy BCTotalWipeout, will it have all the functionality of BCWipe included, or are they separate programs?.

According to the Jetico website, if I buy the BestCrypt Container Version it will come wth a full version of BCWipe. That means that for $20.00 more, I could get 2 programs. If I decide to go wth VeraCrypt and BCWipe, would it be worth it to pay the extra money to have the BestCrypt Container Version as well (or would it offer no worthwhile additional benefits to me since I will already have VeraCrypt)? Would having BestCrypt Volume Version + VeraCrypt be a better combo than BestCrypt Container Version + VeraCrypt? I'm using Windows 7 BTW (and have no intention of moving to Windows 8).

You sir, are awesome! Since your information is based not only on first-hand experience, but a working knowledge of the medium, it is priceless. I truly appreciate your advice. I have only recently started looking into online privacy matters because of the recent revelations in the news (PRISM and the like), and I still have a lot of reading to do. The info that I receive here from those who are better educated in the matter, (and considerate enough to respond to my naive posts) is very helpful. Thanks again. Just a few things to add.you dont really mention what your end goal is / what you are trying to protect.IMO, wiping temp files / browsing history multiple times is pointless, if you are also encrypting your drive.
The reason you perform a multiple pass wipe is to prevent someone from being able to use special tools / programs to try and recover data from your machine. Someone would need physical access to the drive to use these tools.
If you are encrypting your entire drive, then this is overkill, because they arent going to be able to see 'inside' the encryption to try and perform some sort of low level recovery of those files.If you ARE using full disk encryption, it is really up to you is you want to wipe vs just delete such files. IMO, unless you are deleting browsing history that has some sort of legal ramifications, a normal delete is fine. Again, you are just clearing up your (generally boring and innocuous) browsing history, making sure other programs dont have access to that data. Even if you arent using full disk encryption, again, unless you have legal worries about your browsing history, more than a simple delete or 1 pass wipe is a but overkill, as someone needs physical access to your machine to try and recover the deleted data.Now, if you are deleting truly sensitive data (legally questionable or otherwise), even something like old tax filings or whatnot, you should use more passes in your wipe, and not just delete. Someone would still need access to the drive to recover the data, but you dont want old data when you toss a machine that can be recovered, and if you have legal concerns, you dont want the chance of a subpoena and professional tools used to try and recover the files. Again, if you use full disk encryption, this is less of a concern, because those tools arent going to see 'inside' the encryption.Also keep in mind, that we are just talking about clearing / protecting what is ON your machine.
Programs like PRISM go after data that is NOT on your machine by getting your data out of facebook, gmail, etc. If your goal is to protect against those programs, you need to avoid social media and most, if not all, cloud storage (possibly with the exception of using encryption before you place files in cloud storage.) You need to try and secure your internet usage with encryption on both ends (encrypted email, etc), and ways of anonymizing your browsing data / making it harder to tie internet traffic to YOU vs them having the data and not really knowing who it came from. This is a whole other area you need to read up on and protect yourself appropriately.

You may want to look at eff.org for additional research on internet privacy.Also keep in mind that SSD (solid state drives) / flash drives work on a different type of medium than traditional hard drives. If you are wanting to be extra careful, you will want to avoid using SSD for sensitive data, as it is easier to recover data that has been deleted / overwrtten on SSD than it is on a traditional hard drive. Remember back in school when we would take someones spiral notebook after they wrote a note, and lightly rub a pencil across the page(s) underneath the removed page, to reveal what they wrote (if they wrote hard enough)? You have a similar premise with SSD, where the data is 'carved' into the medium (for lack of a better term) and wiping makes and attempt to carve over that data making it unreadable. Depending on the condition of the drive, often times you can recover pieces of that old data.
This can also be done on normal hard drives, but to a lesser degree and not as often. So if you are truly paranoid about someone getting your drive and trying to recover data, stick or platter hard drives, not SSD. The words 'military-grade' when used with security software are generally a sign of snake-oil. Not always, but those who actually know what they're doing and advertize to military customers tend to list the required standards they comply with.
EG 'FIPS 140' or 'NSA Suite B' compliance.Of course just because someone advertizes a product using certain language it doesn't mean that they know or don't know what they're doing. It's just that weasel words like 'military grade' tend to mean they're trying to sell to the ignorant.
