| Banned | well i was wondering if there` s ne way of making a normal document file ne thing (video, audio , document ...etc) to make a system protected file so as to ensure its security from other users.... the main point is to make it virtually undetectable even thru searching programs (basically windows one ) |

| I think what you want is an encrypted volume, look up truecrypt. There are ways of hiding files from windows Data Hiding Tactics for Windows and Unix File Systems Or you can hide files within data streams in other files How to hide files on Windows « Brownian Motion

| FAT32 is old and dead technology. You should be on NTFS. F\Plus that isnt jsut done with Windows. That is using a 3rd party tool jsut like those that Mr.Coffee suggested. |

| Ah but unless i'm mistaken you can do it with the standard windows command line, though its less neat than using the unix cat command. I'll see if I can dig up an article... Edit: here we go: Hide sensitive files with Alternate Data Streams - WindowsSecrets.com Mattew, if you are using FAT32 for some reason you might want to concider converting to NTFS. This can be done from the command line using the convert command How to convert a FAT16 volume or a FAT32 volume to an NTFS file system in Windows XP Be warned that its a one way process though.
