Hello! I have seagate free agent go 250gb. I have some important files and folders. My problem is im giving the hard disk to my friend whose is trust worthy. But im afraid of losing those files which are important to me. Is there any software which protects the file from being deleted? or any such security is possible?

^ trying that myself for a long time.

Will it prevent from deleting

yes it will. folders will not be visible even on other computers (except linux)

but it will be encrypted.

also, if u install a trial ver, keep in mind to decrypt ur folders bfore it expires, u will not be able to rescue them after trial is over.
(lost 2GB of movies on this. had to format the Pen drive)

^^ will be visible in DOS. Unmount drive & mount drive again & get free access to FolderLock files. also using folderlock, he'll get a *.flk file. delete it & all the folderlock files gone.

newer version allows to extract files even after the trial expires.

haha why you all people go for the NTFS encryption method!!
i think you all don't know that!...
