You should have separate accounts for you and your child(ren), protected by passwords.  That way, you can set controls for your kids and not allow them access to any important files such as work folders and such.

In Windows XP, there are a few ways to do it, but the easiest is to compress the folder and use the folder's built-in password protection. See this article:\n\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,110663,00.asp

From the WinRAR screen that shows "Archive Name and parameters":\n1) Click on Advanced tab\n2) Click on Set Password\n\nThere you go!\n\nHowever, if you have a file that someone else pasword protected, you either have to know the password or find a program to "crack" it.

you can either make one of these three things to protect your file:\n\n1. (the simplest) hide it and put it in a network of files and any place that is unlikely to be found\n\n2. encrypt its content using CyberCrypt for example. once encrypted, the file won't be able to show the content as it is.(applies to all formats)\n\n3. use Password Door or Folder Guard. they are what you need but reconsider the 1st 2 options before using such programs. once you've forgotten the password it's over unless you have a backup.

There is a program called AOXPPR, its for the pc. Basically you open the password protected file and it will run thru all possible combinations. It takes a while but you can save your progress and it runs like 300,000 password / sec.

Find a program to make a .mds (media descriptor) from that .mdf\nWhen you make the .mds file you can mount that instead.\nI think you can use DVD Decrypter.

Good try, but it is not uniformed, the passwords are set by the sites admin, they are not universal.\n\nJohn B.

Setting a password in Windows is a really weak way of protecting your files. The files can easily be viewed, for example, by booting up with a Knoppix CD.\n\nWhat you need is encryption (e.g. via PGP or GPG), or, ideally, an encrypted filesystem.\n\nSince the hard drive is external, I'd suggest the best option is one of physical security, i.e. locking the drive away.

Two proposal :\n1- On control panel click on User accounts and define an account yourself and activate password protection for it \nI should say if you are administrator of computer you can do this .Create another limited account for other members of family so they can not use your account at windows start up and they must choose limited account and as an administrator of computer you can save your files on adminstrator folder in documents and settings and your data \nwill be private .you must start your computer in safe mode and activate password for each account except limited acounts that you have created it before for family members.\n2- If your format is FAT32 you can not to encrypt your files or folders but if you format your hard drive as NTFS \nyou will be able to encrypt them.

Click on the "Account Options" button and look at "Album Options" you should see the "Make Public" option, when you choose no, you can put in a "read only" password and it should work.

The Windows operating system does not allow you to password-protect individual files. So, you have a couple of choices:\n\n- Password-protect your Windows user account, and make sure that you're the only administrator on the computer. You can do this through the "Users" item in your Windows Control Panel.\n\n- Get some software that lets you password-protect individual files. Examples:\n* Microsoft Office lets you password-protect files, but it isn't very secure. Password recovery software is readily available.\n* WinZip: http://www.winzip.com\n* PGP: http://www.pgp.com\n* A Google search for "password protect files" will turn up lots of software that can do this.\n\n- Store your files somewhere else besides your computer:\n* on a secure USB drive (for example, Lexar JumpDrive Secure, available on Amazon)\n* on an internet-accessible file server (for example, http://briefcase.yahoo.com)
