Kiss Your Privacy Worries Goodbye with Folder Lock!
A slim security tool lets you password-protect files, folders, drives and removable disks in seconds and protect sensitive information in Safe Mode and even in real DOS Mode
NewSoftwares.net, Inc. today announces the release of version 5.8.0 of Folder Lock, a fully-fledged security tool for the Windows OS. Folder Lock gives you a pain-free ability to lock, hide, encrypt and password-protect files, folders and drives on your 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 in Safe Mode and DOS Mode. Your files remain protected if you boot your PC with a floppy or CD, and even when you switch from one Windows platform to another, so that files 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 the physical world," says Steve Frank, manager at NewSoftwares.net. "Just like it is with a real safe, you have a special folder, named Locker, where you can keep any number of private files and folders. This may be your passwords, credit card numbers, software source code, images and anything else that needs to be protected. Once the Locker is locked up, all files inside become inaccessible for unauthorized users, be they your spouse, co-workers, cyber-hackers or computer viruses. You can simply lock the folder, scramble its content, or encrypt it using 256-bit Blowfish encryption, 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 advanced hackers."
"As for the files and folders that are located outside the Locker folder, you can lock them too," continues Mr. Frank. "Simply right-click the file you want to protect, select the "Lock Folder" item from its context menu, enter a password, and voila! Your file is locked. Now, it cannot be deleted, renamed, accessed, and even seen, that's, of course, if the Stealth Mode is on. However if you want this file to be protected in real DOS Mode or Safe Mode, you had better drag it to the Locker folder. In addition to providing the strongest level of protection, the Locker eliminates the hassle of having to lock up or encrypt each file separately. Another good thing about Folder Lock is that it locks files even on portable devices. Copy the program folder of Folder Lock to the device and secure your files in the Locker it creates. Simple."
