However, if you are running Windows XP with the NTFS file system, you can make folders private to ensure that only you can access them.
December 24, 2004 at 12:36 am #109514DrBroccoliParticipantyou could compress the folder with winzip then put a password on it through winzip…

What programs, and where could I get one?

January 3, 2005 at 5:10 pm #109512astroboyParticipantthanks for the links, but unfortunately some people don’t have credit cards… like me to buy software esp. from the net 😀 I was just lookin to crack up some codes into my folder, because I have seen it done. Again as I have said before, my tutorial of it was wiped out because my hard drive crashed out on me 🙁 and I had to reinstall everything. Nwei, thanx for the help guys 😀
