Re: File encryption Software



I use the following software:

It was free when it came out but now they want a nominal fee. Works
extremely well and fast, just don't forget the password you use when you set
it up.
To make sure you always have your data no matter what happens to your
laptop, you copy your document files to an external drive and you Never have
this external drive plugged in, except when copying documents from your hard
drive. This way, if your laptop goes down or is stolen you can read your
documents by connecting your external drive to any other computer. External
drive no longer expensive. Check for one from LaCie, very reliable.

Hi. Can someone advise me as to the cheapest, safest, and most
effective file encryption software for my laptop running Windows
XP SP2? My system is a Dell laptop with 1024 megabytes of
RAM and a 100 GB hard drive. Thank you.

There have been a number of important laptops stolen recently
but their data were protected by file encryption. My laptop and
its data is only important to me, but I don't want others to access
my private and business data. I own a small floral shop so I
have no access to an IT professional for advice.

Can anyone explain how I'd recover if the encryption software
proves buggy or if an electrical storm knocks my laptop down?
Would I lose access to my data? I'm afraid of encryption software
but feel compelled to use it while on vacation and business trips.

Thank you.

Raquel
