[QUOTE="marcy222, post: 1339580, member: 228047"] I do mean wiping it using disc utility. On my computer the option you click on is called 'zero all data' which is why I called it that. I was just surprised it only took half an hour to get rid of it all! I don't THINK this guy is in the FBI (although you can never tell with those secret agent types!), so HOPEFULLY I am safe and he will go on to enjoy a machine with factory settings. Thanks both for putting my mind at rest (recently had my iPhone nicked and the thief hacked into my credit card and my email off the back of it, which wasn't very nice!) Marcy x [/QUOTE]
