    Hey gang,

    I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I'll ask anyway.

    My business, I'm not going to say what I do, was recently inspected by 'the man'. Everything went pretty well, except for one concern 'the man' had.

    I keep a lot of confidential information on an external HD. This way I can simply unplug it, take it home, plug it in, and have the same files without a lot of busy work.

    'The man's' concen was if I lost this HD or it fell into the wrong hands it's not encrypted, or password protected. 'The man' wants me to install a password/encryption type thing as soon as possible. I don't need anything overly fancy, but I guess I need something.

    Anyone have any ideas? Preferably free... because free is always good. :)

    Thanks for all the help, much appreciated.
