Not exactly freeware or shareware, but one of the best & cheapest devices on the market for totally secure access that I've found thus far is KeyDrive - basically a USB device/keyring that, when unplugged hides the designated, encrypted drive space on your machine. Files are encrypted/decrypted on the fly as well. Check www.keydrive2.com for info. We've done some pretty exhaustive testing and it's held up well.

Hi, I have some highly confidential data that I frequently access on in a folder that is on my desktop computer (ie win2k). I want to make sure no one but me will able to see this data. Does anyone know of any freeware\shareware that will 1) en-crypt the data in the folder and/or 2) require a password to open up the folder? I need to make sure a person like our lan admin or desk top support person can not figure out a way to get to the data.
