I think truecrypt would be better, much better encryption capability, two stage plausible deniability and it's free.

It was there, I saw it - some strange quote.

I think that there is a glitch on this forum when new users sign up, as a lot of users seem to have filiss as a sig and a DOB of 1st Jan.
