Also try this. http://bestfreewareblog.com/2006/12/14/free-hide-folder-12/. Not tried it myself, but sounds good. It actually hides your folders/files, so others don't even know that they are there.

I use for all my financial and other important files that I don't want anyone to get access to. Highly recommended.0 -
