"I like this software"

by chipakid on December 22, 2009

Pros: My sister had a nasty virus or file corruption on her XP computer that would not let her log in to windows. I decide to search for a deleter program and found Active@ Kill Disk so glad i found it.

Cons: none nada.......

Summary: Not only this is good for deletions of data, but also to fix your entire hardrive. Highly recommend this.
