give the linux "shred" command a try, it belongs to the linux coreutils
...part of the man page...
NAME
shred - delete a file securely, first overwriting it to hide
its contents
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
Overwrite the specified FILE(s) repeatedly, in order to make it
harder for even very expensive hardware probing to recover the
data.
Have a nice day :)
