Hi Alex,

Are you putting Linux on these computers?

    I'm working on security for my home
      network.  I often buy second hand computers that come with hard
      drives.  Of course I don't run the old operating system that was
      on the computer, but I have been wondering if when you format the
      drive does it get rid of any installed virus, worms or root kits?
