Default Wiping hard drive clean

Hi:
Can anyone suggest any aplications (freeware, shareare,etc.)
that will actually wipe your hard drive clean
not just erase the pointers
so that any persoanl data that may have been on the Hard Disk
is not retrievable by anyone
no matter how good of a hacker they may be ?


Will doing a reformat/re-install of Windows (98)
accomplish this ? If so, how would one do it ?
From an Emergency BackUP CD ? A system floppy ?

Thank you
DaleB
