EVIDENCE TERMINATOR FAQ

Q. What is Evidence Terminator and why do I need it?
A. The Evidence Terminator software will help you enjoy a richer and more protected computing experience as it deletes those annoying junk files and covers up your internet footsteps automatically! Evidence Terminator's main advantage over other junk file cleaners is its advanced scripting system and deep cleaning capabilities. In addition, you do not have to remember to run ET, as it runs automatically on startup. You can specify as many locations as you wish to be erased on startup, and you can "deep clean" your system and get those files hiding throughout your hard drive. Evidence Terminator is the most advanced hard disk cleanup utility in the world and should not be mistaken for just another cache cleaner.

Q. How is ET different or better than other cleanup utilities?
A. ET is entirely dynamic and script based. It is not based on predefined areas to be cleaned, and automatically customizes itself for your system. Additionally, there is a user defined script where you can put whatever you want to be cleaned. ET also overwrites files two times before deleting them to help prevent data recovery.

Q. Does Evidence Terminator delete index.dat?
A. YES! Evidence Terminator wipes index.dat files out on Win9x, Win2k and WinXP!

Q. Can files erased by ET be undeleted?
A. Evidence Terminator overwrites every file to be erased with a pattern of 1s and then hex 0xFFs before deleting it. This makes recovery very difficult without sophisticated data recovery analysis. Standard undelete tools and even surface scanners will generally fail to recover your "evidence" once it is "terminated" by ET. It is solely your responsibility to review your scripts before cleaning for the first time to be sure that any files that you want to keep are not listed to be deleted for this reason. Do not use this software in environments where guaranteed data destruction is required. A hard drive is an imperfect mechanical device, thus Hard drives can never be completely wiped unless physically destroyed.

Q. My cookies, cache files, etc are not being erased!
A. If you have relocated any of your Internet caching folders and called them something different than their default name, Evidence Terminator may not find them while generating your scripts. The solution is to enter them into your user defined script. Click More Options, add the line into the script for where you placed the directory, and then enable the user defined script in the same dialog.
