Or you could just put it in My Documents and not share it.

Just downloaded and in use...

 

[WisMan]

I share all my porn!

 

[SlitheryDee]

Sweet. I don't have to share my account but I definitely see how this is useful.

There's still ways around it. The only way of safely securing it is it by encrypting the folder.

And you could be fired from work for using an unauthorized program.

Which unauthorized program are you talking about? The encrypting software? Private Folder is a XP Powertoy. It'd be pretty lame if you got fired for using a Microsoft program.

You use a company's computer, you agree to their policies. If you're already on thin ice, something like this would definitely get you a boot.

Yeah. That's why Microsoft pulled the program off their site.

Following an outcry from corporate customers, Microsoft is removing an add-on feature to Windows that allowed users to create password-protected folders.

Do you know what's easier? Keeping unwanted users off your computer.

Want to know what's more effective? Don't save pr0n videos.

 

[Baked]

All my pr0n are placed on the desktop. Why hide it?

Yes, that's so much more likely than being fired from work when they find all your unencrypted porn on your machine.

I said that when?

And when an encrypted folder throws up red flags and they ask you to show them what's in the folder, what are you going to do, refuse to show them?

Instant termination.

On top of this, all someone would have to do is run a network wide search for "My Private Folder" to see who is using this.

All you have to do is make the folder that has all your stash in it Hidden, then removed the picture of the folder and make the foldername blank so no one will know it's there but you!

Enable Hidden Files
Do a search for video file types larger than a certain size. For example, videos larger than 100mBs.

damn, is the link broken? I can't download it.

 

[McGyver]

first, u have to make sure if your drive is NTFS formatted. if it is, u can go to user setting and set it up accordingly so that your account is password protected. if not, then all u have to do is install a copy of partition magic ver ?, then defregment the harddrive and partition a portion of ur physical drive into NTFS. reboot, and make that drive private. VOILA! problem solved. private stash, i totally understand.

 

[judasmachine]

p0rn is for sharing!!!

Wouldn't partitioning a portion of your OS partition screw up your computer?...

Cause I did that before....
it sucked.

I haven't used this program yet, but, looks good:

TrueCrypt

the unique thing it has (besides being free) is Plausible Deniability...

Password1 = Your Stuff
Password2 = other Stuff

If ever forced to give info you can provide the password #2 (for example) and, in theory, live happilly ever after because even if suspected nobody can (currently) prove you have a second password with a separate set of data in that file.
