You have the most amazing collection of GIFs. <img src=/S/grin.gif border=0 alt=grin width=15 height=15>
To your steps, I would add one more: run the SysInternals program SDelete against all empty space on the driver to overwrite it with noise data, to make recovery very difficult. I think someone recently posted a link to a GUI-based tool that does the same thing, but I didn't bookmark it...
