...for Atari 520 ST.  I discovered this program (grapesto.prg) on
one of a set of disks with various cute demo programs, and when I tried
it out it destroyed the disk.  It identifies itself as "Grape Stomper",
displays a diagram and several on-screen buttons.  The "info" button
displays a blurb to the effect that this is freeware, send us what you
think it's worth, and names two (probably fictitious) authors.

When you press the start button, it appears to destroy disks in reverse
order, disk A last, ie. it goes for the hard disk first if you have
one.  (Fortunately, all I was working with was one floppy, and all that
was destroyed is replaceable.)
