i think the PATA system allows for locking of HDD??? at least that is what they do with origional XBOX's and hence why you have to go through all the crap to unlock the HDD to use it elsewhere.

maybe google "locking ide drive" or similar?

All nice programs and will do the job

But in a perfect world I would love one that when you plug the usb drive it ask for the password to login into the usb ,otherwise it wont let you browse the usb drive folders.

Not being fussy or anything

or just compress them into a password protected self extracting rar file. encrypt the file names as well ......

remember to run window washer etc to get rid of temp files when you are done....

once again i recommend truecrypt, you can encrypt the whole drive or a portion of it.think of a visit you had and what had to be done before a certain usb was visible

Do you ever have that nagging feeling that you have seen something and you can't remember where you saw it, well I feel a lot better now that you jogged my memory
