Morning all, hope u had a good weekend. Pretty wet around the Bay. I am doing this for a friend, but in the meantime got interested myself, and cause I couldnt find an answer picking ur brains. Have searched the net, but cant find: How to make a folder invisible for security reasons. Starting point; make it invisible. Possibly password protect the invisble folder as well. Nearest I can find on the net is appending a '$' to shared resources makes em invisible to Network. I suspect you have to rename the folder using invalid characters, but I have been known to be wrong before eh Aaron.
