Thank you very much for this info about wiping the drive. I will do that. For reference about deleting the logs so I can know this for my other computers as well, if I just delete the entire Tor IM Browser Bundle folder, will this delete all the Pidgin Chat logs and web history from the Tor Browser?
Or is there some extra step I need to take to delete all of these Pidgin chat logs and web history? Thank you for your expertise. There are many intelligent people on this list, I appreciate your knowledge.
