Secure Empty Trash hangs
If I do use the command line, what command do I use?
For my information, where-abouts in the file system, is the Trash located?
PowerPC Mac Mini, Mac OS X (10.5)

I did a "Restarted"; then tried to "Secure Empty Trash", and "Finder" hung. I find the only way to "Secure Empty Trash" is to eject my external drive (which in my case is the one I use for Time Machine) then, "Secure Empty Trash" and use "Disk Utility" to remount the drive.
Does anyone else find this to be true?
