Not sure why you want to avoid an "encrypted zone" on your HD??? You could drag a folder/file in there and poof, encrypted!\nSuggest you look at the following...\nhttp://www.cypherix.co.uk/downloads.htm\nhttp://www.truecrypt.org/

Hi, I think that depends on whether you want the program to be free or just free trial. If you want a free remote access program, go for logmein. At the same time, can also try Real VNC or TightVNC, also free. But if you don't mind paying, can go for gotomypc...

In my opinion, it's DVDDecrypter.  Find it at http://www.doom9.org/ in the downloads section.  You can also find other software and opinions there.

If you don't care whether the file is visible or not and just want to prevent others from accessing its contents, the best solution is to encrypt it. Do *not* use ZIP archives, because the cipher they use is weak and can be broken.\n\nIf the file resides on an NTFS file system, the easiest way to encrypt it is to use the built-in encryption capabilities of Windows. To determine whether the file resides on an NTFS files system, do the following:\n\n1) In Explorer, right-click on the drive on which the file resides and select Properties from the menu that pops up.\n\n2) On the General tab of the dialog that will be displayed, find the "File system" label (it's just beneath the "Type" label). If the file system is "NTFS", you have what is needed. If it is "FAT32" (or "FAT") or something else, then you'll need a different solution; more about it later.\n\nNote that only Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP support NTFS file systems; Windows 95 and Windows 98 do not. (Although just because you are using a version of Windows that supports NTFS does not necessarily mean that this is the file system of the disk where the file is; you still need to check using the above method.)\n\nIf you have determined that the disk on which the file you want to protect is uses the NTFS file system, you can protect the file using the following procedure:\n\n1) Right-click on the file in Explorer.\n\n2) Select Properties from the menu that pops up.\n\n3) On the General tab of the dialog that appears, click on the Advanced button.\n\n4) A new dialog will appear. Check the checkbox marked "Encrypt the contents to secure data".\n\n5) Click the OK buttons to close the dialogs.\n\nIf the disk on which the file resides does not use the NTFS file system, you'll need third-party encryption software.  Be aware that most crypto programs written by amateurs (and even most crypto programs sold by software companies) are weak and easily broken by a determined attacker. It is best to stick with programs which are available in source and have been inspected for vulnerabilites for years. One such program is PGP. Although designed mainly for message encryption using public key cryptography, it can be used to encrypt files using conventional cryptography too. However, if you have more than one file you want to protect, it is better to create a whole encrypted volume (like a disk partition), on which to store these files. PGPDisk is ideal for that, although TrueCrypt is reasonably good too.

An excellent program is KeePass.  The product allows you to save a username, password, url and description in an encrypted file on any device you choose, including usb keys.  It also provides a password generator and can be further secured by requiring a security file to unlock the password file.  You can download the product at the following address.  \n\nhttp://keepass.sourceforge.net/

free software http://www.truecrypt.org/\nis one of your best friends for that.\n\n1) create file by size of CD or DVD on your HDD using \n   TrueCrypt (see above)\n2) mount this file\n3) copy your data \n4) unmount this file\n5) copy the encrypted file to CD or DVD\n\nSounds more complicated, than in reality.\nAlso, you can skip 2,3 and 4 if you use re-writable CD/DVD.

If it is a personal DVD, I assume it is not encrypted.  You can use any DVD copying softwaer (Nero 6.0+, Roxio Easy CD/DVD, Alcohol, etc.) with a DVD burner.  There is free DVD copying software too that you can download-- just google for it.  Again, these are all for nonencrypted DVDs (noncopyrighted).  You can copy encrypted DVDs for backup that you have bought, and you need special software for this on top of the DVD copying software.

the best way is to download pgp at http://www.pgp.com they have a free version and a pay version of it.  This is one of the best encyrption programs out there.  Winzip there are password crackers for that and if they get the zip file then your shot.  Plus when you want to make changes and save the file you will have to unzip it and rezip the file with the password.  Microsoft windows xp has a encryption built into its os all you have to do is right click on the file and go to properties.  There you will see a advance button on the bottom click that and select the encryption button.  This will encrypt the file so only you can read it.  If somone else logs onto your computer they will have to log on to your name to read the file.  When you back it up to a CD it will take the encryption off so remember that.
