The app is called MacOS Purge and it was really hard to find - none of the major software archives seemed to have it. I found links here: http://www.dmitchell.vcn.com/dmitchell/util.html http://www3.telus.net/squishy/macprograms.html If for some reason you can't get it from either of those, I have it at home somewhere and can mail it to whomever.
