Shredder Widget

Shredder Widget… You’re familiar with them around the office – those loud devices that leave mountains of finely shredded paper in their wake. Now you can have the convenience and security of a digital document shredder right in your Dashboard; even better, its 100% silent and doesn’t leave shredded bits about for you to clean up later. Its variable shred levels give you just the amount of protection you need.

* Low: Bypass the trash can. Though this isn’t as secure a deletion of your files, it is a quick way to get rid of those files you know you don’t need, leaving the trash can for those things you just might want to dig out later.
* Medium: Secure erase. This mode overwrites your shredded documents with a US Department of Defence compliant 7 pass procedure.
* High: Virtual Paper Pulp. Use this setting for only the most sensitive files. Though it might be slow, the 35 pass Gutmann algorithm will ensure that no data from these files is ever recovered.

What’s new in this version:

Version 1.2.1:

* Leopard compatibility
* Cycle shred level while dragging (hover over indicator light)
* Cycle shred level with spacebar
* Now shreds documents with foreign characters in filename
* Smoother animation
