Publisher's description of My Lockbox
view larger From FSPro Labs:

My Lockbox is a freeware software application that allows you to password protect whatever file on your computer. The protected folder (lockbox) is hidden from any user and application of your system, including Administrator and System itself. It is impossible to access the lockbox not only from the local computer, but also from the net.

The program is extremely easy to use. You can set the lockbox location and the password during the setup procedure. After the setup is done, lockbox will be hidden and locked until you enter the valid password. My Lockbox Control Panel allows you easily change basic lockbox parameters: lockbox location, protection status, password. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.

Editor's review of My Lockbox
Vanishing actThose of us who crave a little privacy in our file system will appreciate My Lockbox's simple premise of password-protecting a folder and erasing the path from view. On the interface, which is also under your password's lock and key, you have multiple ways to select the hushed-up folder, which can contain subfolders and conceivably unlimited files. You'll also be able to manually lock or unlock the files and keep the lock box concealed while in Safe Mode. You can also choose to keep the tray icon of a lock from appearing whenever the lock box is open. Users will also find skins and the ability to set a hot key. However, while secrecy is of the utmost concern, the app's prominent placement as a Start menu icon is puzzling.
