[QUOTE="detpenguin, post: 786387, member: 63250"] secure empty means it overwrites the diskspace where the files lived, essentially removing any trace of the file on your harddrive, making it virtually impossible to recover. simply emptying the trash only removes any link to it, it is still on your harddrive and it can (possibly) be recovered if you needed it back for some reason.
