Is there a way to password protect folders ?

Not necessarily a password, but you have encrypt with a certificate or the easier way is to set up permissions and only allow yourself, and create other accounts on your system....

Thanks for the fast response !!!!! Let me ask you this. Is there a program out there that would let me do this ?

Put a password on a folder? I am sure of it....but I haven't had a need for it so I don't have any good suggestions for a password program.....the only thing I ever used was key logging program with password protection at inital login (on Win 98).....

You are better off creating user accounts and then limiting file permissions to certain things.....

Right click on my computer and select manage.

You will see a users and groups section.....you can play around from there.....
