    I had something once called "Crypt LocK" (I think). It worked fine but would only password protect the individual files and not the entire folder and not sure if there is a download anymore and a WinXP version. I would prefer something that would lock the entire folder but would settle for that if it's all there is.

    I'm a little surprised that no one has any suggestion.

    Try 'Lock my Folder' (Demonoid has torrent). One of the few programs
    that even protect in safe mode.

    This program really sounds interesting, and I was wondering if you have ever tried this software? Is it reliable? I only want to encrypt certain files and folders but do want to make sure I do not loose the date in the encryption process. Nor do I want to encrypt other files and folders or inadvertently render them useless.

    This sure sounds like a useful program if it does all it claims but also sounds a little complex. Would I be better off with a simpler program?
