PS You should also go to control panel and add/remove programs and clear out any programs you have installed that you don't want anyone to see (for any reason) and you could also use search to find any particular other types of files such as music or pictures ... use *.jpg or *.mp3 or search for all photos and/or all music then select all and delete.How to clear out my computer (pictures and all) without clearing out downloaded programs...?
