Windows XP isn't strong enough, what products would you recommend? Preferably low cost or free products? Thanks, Gabe
Gabe, Here's what I would recommend: For encrypting folders or large amounts of files: Paid - Bestcrypt 7+ (http://www.jetico.com/order.htm) Free - PGPDisk (http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgpdisk/) Free - FineCrypt (http://www.finecrypt.net/) For encrypting files: Free - FineCrypt (http://www.finecrypt.net/) Free - Microsoft's EFS (Built in) Free - PGP (version 6) www.pgpi.com PAID - PGP (version 8) www.pgp.com For higher security: Crypt Card - http://www.gtgi.com/products_cryptcard.php For normal access control: IBM SmartCard Security Toolkit (both an encryption/decryption package and access control requiring a smart card and pin to boot the system) J.
