\deflang1033\pard\plain\f5\fs44\cf2 \keepn \{bmc heading.bmp \} Why do I need a Secure Shutdown?\plain\f2\fs18\cf0 \par\pard \plain\f5\fs36\cf3 
\par \plain\f2\fs18 As mentioned in the Charter: \tab 
\par 
\par \pard\li360\tx1134\tx2552\plain\lang1024\f6\fs18 [9.] C. Computer files (other than programs) must be kept encrypted, and be "wiped" after they have been erased.
\par \pard\li851\tx1134\tx2552\plain\lang1024\f6\fs18 
\par \pard\plain\f2\fs18 In other words you need to encrypt all your data and make sure that the unencrypted data isn't hanging around on your hard disk somewhere. This is possible in all sorts of ways, here's some of the most common:
\par 
\par \pard\li567\fi-425\tx567\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab For starters if a file is in you Recycle Bin anyone can get it out until it's actually been emptied. The \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Empty Recycle Bin\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18  Item on the checklist can take care of this one. 
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic12})
\par 
\par \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab When files are deleted they aren't actually removed from your hard disk even if you empty your recycle bin. Just the name is removed from a sorta index. For this reason you need to make sure to wipe the free space on your hard disk every night. The \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Wipe Free Space\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18  Item in the checklist does this for you.
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic15})
\par 
\par \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab A lot of programs create temporary files when they run. Most of the time they remove those files. But if something goes funny (your computer crashes etc\'85) those files can still be around. The \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Empty Temp Folder \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 item on the checklist will clear those out for you.
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic11})
\par 
\par \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab If you're on a Network, then data you view on your Intranet can still be on your computer in the 'Temporary Internet Files' Folder. The \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Clear Temporary Internet Files\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18  item can clear'm out. 
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic10})
\par 
\par \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab Windows uses a file called a swap file to provide memory to programs if there isn't enough. Don't worry about the details, but there can be unencrypted data hiding in that file. The \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Delete Windows Swap File\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18  item on the checklist will take care of that one.
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic14})
\par 
\par \{bmct onestep.bmp\}\tab Sometimes if you've had  a computer crash there can be data hiding out in little nooks and crannies of your computer called lost clusters. To make sure they're cleared up check off the \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b Check Hard Disk for Lost Clusters\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18  item on the checklist.
\par \tab ({\uldb more info}{\v Topic13})
\par 
\par \pard\plain\f2\fs18 The WXPY Shutdown does a great job of encrypting all your files and backing them up, but setting up a batch file system for wiping your hard drive outside of Windows and taking care of all the rest of the above weird stuff is a little complex. 
\par

\par 
\par \plain\f2\fs18 In most cases uninstalling the program and reinstalling it will fix this problem. Here's how:

\par \plain\f2\fs18 
\par Menu Extension won't encrypt files that are read only, and stops to tell you about it. Here's how to change a file so it's not read only. 
\par 
\par \pard\li567\fi-425\tx567\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b 1\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 \tab Note the name of the file that it stops on, and find that same file in Explorer.
\par \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b 2\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 \tab Right click on the file and select 'Properties' from the menu that pops up.
\par \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b 3\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 \tab Make sure the 'Read Only' check box isn't checked.
\par \plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b 4\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 \tab Click 'OK' to save your changes
\par \pard\plain\f2\fs18 
\par One other thing to keep in mind is that you have any files open, it'll also stop on them. Make sure to close all your programs before starting your Secure Shutdown.
\par 
\par 
\par 
\par \plain\lang1024\f3\fs28\b \{bmct open.bmp\}\plain\f3\fs24  \plain\f3\fs24\b Man, this sure takes a long time to wipe
\par \plain\f2\fs18 
\par Check how much free space you have on your hard disk. If there's lots over 500 MB or so you may want to copy some ballast over to fill it up. These files would only be temporarily on your hard disk, so when you need the space you can remove them. 
\par 
\par You could try copying some folders from the HomeARC.

\par \plain\f2\fs18 
\par This can happen, if you haven't installed the HomeARC but are trying to use Menu Extension. (If you're using Windows NT see the next question) 
\par 
\par The simplest solution is just to install the HomeARC and after you reboot everything should work fine. If for some reason you can't do that, or it doesn't work, try the following.\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18\b 
\par \plain\f3\fs24

\par \plain\f2\fs18 
\par Y\plain\lang1024\f2\fs18 es, Night Security is completely compatible with Windows NT 4.0 and higher. 
\par 
\par Some of the DOS options, like 'Delete Swap File' won't run because you just can't do that on Windows NT. The remainder of the DOS Options that work run in a DOS Window, since you can't exit to DOS under Windows NT.
\par 
\par On the other hand the current version of Menu Extension, which Night Security uses for it's encryption, is not compatible. So you have to do your own encryption before starting the Secure Shutdown.

\par \plain\lang1033\f2\fs18 Here's how to fill out your checklist. The following only needs to be done once. Since Night Security uses the program 'Menu Extension' that comes with the HomeARC to encrypt your files, you'll need to have that installed. See the {\uldb Troubleshooting}{\v Topic3} page for info on how to install it.
\par 
\par \plain\f3\fs28\b \{bmct open.bmp\} \plain\lang1033\f3\fs28\b Setting up Menu Extension
\par \plain\lang1033\f2\fs18 First you have to tell Menu Extension which files you want to encrypt:
\par 
\par \pard\li567\fi-425\tx567\plain\f2\fs18\b 1\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Choose 'Programs | Heavenly Helpers | Menu Extension' from the Start Menu. {\uldb \{bmct shortcut.bmp\}}{\v !ExecFile(menuext.exe)}
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 2\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Click the 'WXPY Options' button, and in the box that pops up click the 'Shutdown XPY' tab. 
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 3\plain\f2\fs18 \tab By clicking the 'Browse' button you can select the folders you want to encrypt.
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 4\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Click 'OK' in all the boxes after you're done.
\par 
\par \pard\plain\f3\fs28\b \{bmct open.bmp\} \plain\lang1033\f3\fs28\b Filling out the Checklist
\par \plain\lang1033\f2\fs18 Now it's time to fill out your Night Security Checklist and tell it what exactly you want it to do. For more info on the different options see 'Why do I need a Secure Shutdown.'
\par 
\par \pard\li567\fi-425\tx567\plain\f2\fs18\b 1\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Choose 'Programs | Night Security | Night Security Checklist' from the Start Menu. {\uldb \{bmct shortcut.bmp\}}{\v !ExecFile(secsetup.exe)}
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 2\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Click the 'Next' button and you'll be presented with a list of all the different things that Night Security can do while still in Windows before actually shutting down your computer. Normally you'd select all of them.
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 3\plain\f2\fs18 \tab After you're done there click the 'Next' button to go to the list of things that happen after exiting Windows. As above normally you'd select all these options. The Wipe Free Space option is especially important.
\par \plain\f2\fs18\b 4\plain\f2\fs18 \tab Click the 'Finish' button to save your choices.
