    With Windows xp I use "universal shield" , I've been using it for 3 years. With this program I just hide the folder where the exe file is located. When some one clicks on the shortcut, they get a message "file not found". If you have a folder with mp3's you can allow people to play them, but not to delete any of them.

    That's the type of program you need, it works pretty good and is password protected. I tried a couple but this one is fast, easy to use and very reliable.

    If you have vista, there is "folder vault 2.0 " you can try which does the same thing as universal shield but is vista compatible.
