Kiss Your Privacy Worries Goodbye with Folder Lock!
A slim security tool lets you password-protect files, folders, drives and removabledisks in seconds and protect sensitive information in Safe Mode and even in real DOSMode
NewSoftwares.net, Inc. today announces the release of version 5.7.0 of Folder Lock,a fully-fledged security tool for the Windows OS. Folder Lock gives you a pain-freeability to lock, hide, encrypt and password-protect files, folders and drives onyour PC. Also, you can protect files on USB flash drives, memory sticks, CD-RW,floppies, and notebooks. Unique to Folder Lock is its ability to protect files inSafe Mode and DOS Mode. Your files remain protected if you boot your PC with afloppy or CD, and even when you switch from one Windows platform to another, so thatfiles protected in Windows XP remain protected in Windows 98.
 You can work with Folder Lock in much the same way as you would with a safe in thephysical world, says Steve Frank, manager at NewSoftwares.net.  Just like it iswith a real safe, you have a special folder, named Locker, where you can keep anynumber of private files and folders. This may be your passwords, credit cardnumbers, software source code, images and anything else that needs to be protected.Once the Locker is locked up, all files inside become inaccessible for unauthorizedusers, be they your spouse, co-workers, cyber-hackers or computer viruses. You cansimply lock the folder, scramble its content, or encrypt it using 256-bit Blowfishencryption, which is the strongest today. Plus, there are five methods of locking,known as patent pending, two of which are unknown even to the most advancedhackers.Â
 As for the files and folders that are located outside the Locker folder, you canlock them too, continues Mr. Frank.  Simply right-click the file you want toprotect, select the  Lock Folder item from its context menu, enter a password, andvoila! Your file is locked. Now, it cannot be deleted, renamed, accessed, and evenseen, thatÂ's, of course, if the Stealth Mode is on. However if you want this file tobe protected in real DOS Mode or Safe Mode, you had better drag it to the Lockerfolder. In addition to providing the strongest level of protection, the Lockereliminates the hassle of having to lock up or encrypt each file separately. Anothergood thing about Folder Lock is that it locks files even on portable devices. Copythe program folder of Folder Lock to the device and secure your files in the Lockerit creates. Simple.Â
