The simple truth here is that to be really secure, you need to scrap Windows. Linux is the only answer. There are numerous different distributions to choose from and they're FREE. And if you get it set up properly, it makes any Windows version look completely stupid. Everything from performance to user interface (with awesome 3D effects) to, of course, security. And of course, all the encryption tools you'll ever need are available for free on Linux.

You can get free progs like file lock or folder lock These work well however if someone realy wants to get to your files and knows what there doing even formatting 5 times won't stop them!

Eleojo - On a more complicated note I also recommend trying Maya or Lightwave 3d - However I have also used the already suggested software from TrustfulEncounter and can say those are top notch programs as well.

Next go into the "Tools" dropdown menu in the window and select "Folder Options" - Click the "View" Tab on top of the window that opened - Under the Advanced Settings part of the window that's open there should be something that says "Hidden Files and Folders" in the scroll down menu with two options below it - (If not already selected) Select "Do not show hidden files and folders" - Hit "Apply" then "Okay" - Your selected files should now be hidden from view. Hope that helps

I have to break this up into two parts because of the character limits for posting. Missy - If you're just talking simple hidden so no one can see them then go: Right click on file you want to hide (For multiple Files, hold Ctrl, select the multiple files, then right click on one of them) - select properties - check the box under "Attributes" that's labeled "Hidden" - Click Apply and then Okay.

Hi all, I have a PC using Windows XP professional OS but have forgettens its password! I have over three PCs I use so I had spent over 6 (sic) Months without suing this particular one. I have tried all possible alternative inclusing chaning jumpers n chaning RAM chips but failed! I welcome any advice as to how I can gain access to my PC again as I have information locked in there. Many Thanks. SMB
