There are also a number of entries if you just Google "File Shredder for Windows 7"
I don't know if these are as good as a Mac equivalent as I don't use a Mac, I use a real man's PC:sarc:

I don't think any Windows OS's have had an integrated shredder and I go back to Win 3.0 (Now i feel quite ancient!)

Unlike Linux/Unix... (I hope these are not dirty words in this forum )

No definitely not! Lots of members on this Forum use other operating systems.

I s'ppose the closest you could get with onboard tools: empty the trash bin and run a defrag.
If your data is so sensitive, why not creating a small partition for it where it can be overwritten/reformated every so often.

Have a look here:

AbsoluteShield File Shredder - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

Never used it myself, I use a little programme called cyber shredder, but the one in the link is intergrated into the 'right click' menu.

I know that with CCleaner and TuneUp Utilities you can integrate into the context menu of the recycle bin to shred files. CCleaner is free and TuneUp is not. In order for it to "shred" the files with CCleaner you have to go to options and then settings and tick add run ccleaner option to recycle bin context menu and then make sure the secure deletion is ticked and use the drop down menu to choose your method of securely deleting the files.

This isn't integrated, but doesn't have to be installed, is completely portable, very small (22.5K!), extremely fast! Can be set to overwrite as many as 100 times (and that's fast, you won't have to wait).
