PW Protecting Folders
Is it possible to password protect a folder in XP. Well I know its possible but can you do it so you have to have the password on all profiles. I mean if I leave my pc running and I dont log out anyone could come view the folder. Can you pw it so it would even make the creator enter the password to view it and any other person that logs in with there profile?
Thanks

One of the easiest ways is to zip up the files, and password protect the zip...

Ya Know I thought of that lol
But this isnt for me its for a older person that doesnt really understand the concept of zipping and unzipping. And for some reason he is wanting to pw just one folder that he will keep to himself. I not sure if he is hiding his porn or what he is doing but he says his wife keeps reading his files and his kids also. So I just told him I would look into it. I think there are some 3rd party software that will do it but I was just seeing if XP was capiable without buying more software.
