I have a Sony Cybershot camera and was thinking of experimenting with Eraser and the memory stick by erasing the free space. Will this harm my camera in any way if I do this? I did have an old memory stick I don't use any more but I cannot fond it to try it out on.

I've used Eraser to clear the free space on a USB memory stick before. It seems to work fine, but it should be remembered that the flash memory on these devices has a finite lifetime. The more you write to it, the faster it wears out.
In practice, this tends to take a while. But it's something to keep in mind.
