The program works the same way a paper shredder does, only instead of cutting the paper to tiny pieces, it overwrites files with characters (either random or only 0's). This way files cannot be recovered by any utility.
It's a file shredder. Simple as that. Works with vista even though I believe the author stopped development in 2006. If someone hasn't already picked up the project for future development I'd recommend it.
