Removing Every trace of your being from XP

[tm37]

OK so I have a friend that is leaving her job and I want to make sure that all of her browser passwords and .net stuff is gone.

\She uses the work lappy for all kinds of poersonal stuff (I told her this is bad)

IS there any way short of reofrmating the drive?

Depends on how much is cached domain side. Getting on and making a local user an admin, and then logging in locally and removing the domain user's Documents and Settings would go a long way.

I am talking obvously the cookies and such are important.

But stored Passwords and the like any utility? Perfer free)

Outside of clearing the temp internet files and deleting cookies from IE I would *NOT* do anything else. The PC is not her property. Anything she would do to ensure the data was destroyed would destory the OS/Apps (special format utilities like DBAN).
