Secure empty trash and bye bye files

When you empty the trash, the trash icon surely looks like it is empty. Is it really gone? Well, not really. By using an application that is specially design to recover the deleted files from a hard drive, it can be restored.
That notion is not accepted by a certain group of people especially the paranoid 
or the FBI, CIA, etc. But thanks to Mac OS X to include the feature to erase those files out of your machine forever. So when you absolutely, positively 100% sure that you want to erase these files forever, just go to Finder menu > Secure Empty Trash…
Thi process will take a little bit longer than usual, though
