There are a lot of ways to potentially observe someone's computer usage. First a key stroke logger (hardware or software) can be used to get your passwords. He could also be using something called a "rootkit" to hide the software that he is using to observe  you. There is a program called Rootkit Revealer that will check your system to detect any root-kits that are installed. Once you know that your system has been compromised like this. The only safe way to proceede is to format and reinstall. You should back up your data before this, but be VERY careful about accessing it, because it could be a vector allowing the root kit back onto your system. \n\nWindows XP (Mac OS and Linux/Unix do too), allows you to encrypt your home directory. This will prevent him from viewing your files when he is logged into his accout.\n\nIf you are sharing a network, but not a single machine, he could also use network traffic sniffing software like Ethereal or Cain and Able to view the traffic being transmitted to an from your computer. Encrypted connections like SSH tunnels, or HTTPS will not expose their content, but he would be able to see the source an destination addresses.

Windows XP includes file system encryption.  Search Windows help for instructions.

If you are using Windows XP you have several options.\nOption 1: Right click on the file to password (or an entire folder if you want), click properties, click the General tab, click Advanced button, click Encrypt Contents check box.\n\nOption 2: Use compression program like WinZip, and choose Encrypt or Password Protect options.\n\nThese will encrypt your information so that only a programming genius will be able to see your data 99.99% of people will not be able to get to it.\n\n* NOTE *\nIf you are engaging in illegal activity, these will not be good enough. Neither will deleting the files. The police can easily crack those. In that case you will need to delete everything, throw your hard disk away and never access those files again.

If you stupidly opened said file out of curiosity, then there is the heightened risk of having let a worm or virus and the like into your computer.  Could be innocent hoax or could be harmful crash?

Unfortunately, DVD Decrypter is obsolete.   It is no longer being developed.  The movie industry have improved their copy protection on DVD movies.  You will need to use software which can handle the new copy protection.  Try Slysoft's AnyDVD (shareware, 21 day free trial) or DVDFab Decrypter (freeware).\n\n1.

I'd like something like that too, but I settle for AxCrypt (website below) - which is free, but encypts only FILES - not folders.\n\nWith it you can easily "encrypt" a bunch of files with a password, so noone can see anything (apart from the filenames) - then easily UNEncrypt them when u want.

There are cards out there that offer password protection. I looked into this once, and found them "so so". If your goal is to discourage the casual data thief, then this will do. If you're looking for industrial strength encryption, then these tools won't offer it.\nUse file encryption instead, and transfer the encrypted files onto the SD card.

First of all let's see what kind of spying sofware is available...\n\nType 1: KEYLOGGERS. This kind of soft is collecting whatever you type, name of the application used when typing, time stamp, etc. Worst part is that they collect all passwords as plain text even if you see them on screen as ******* cause they hijack the keyboard. The info is sent then via email, ftp or allows the 'owner' of the keylogger to access the file containing the collected data.\n\nType 2: VISUAL SPYWARE. They take snapshots of your screen and send them via ftp, email, etc.\n\nType 3: Just imagine the combination of type 1 & 2.\n\nType 4: REMOTE ADMINISTRATION programs. You can see them, in a way, as spyware. They allow a remote user to login into your computer and control it like being in the front of the keyboard.\n\nTypes 1, 2, and 3 are able to hide themselves. They don't appear in the tasks list, in the running processes list, they just don't appear anyway.\nType 4 is considered to be a legitimate application so all of them have visual indicators to show you when a remote client connects to your computer.\n\nHow to avoid the bad ones?\nSomeone said "antivirus + firewall". Well... it may work, it may not work! As many spyware progs are using "regular" ports (21, 25, 80, 110) used by your browser or your email client, firewalls are useless.\nSome are untraceble for antiviruses. For ex Norton antivirus is not catching BKP...\n\nFrom personal experience the  best you can do is:\n1. run an anti-spyware program to check if your computer is clean. Almost all of them will do the trick.\n2. as antivirus use Avast (www.avast.com). Is free (home edition) and surprizingly effective. After installing it I was unable to install any of the keyloggers I've found on the net. Also very good against viruses, trojans, etc, etc...\n3. install Netlimiter (www.netlimiter.com). It will show clearly the traffic done by any process. The moment you see something suspect you can kill the traffic for that process, find the application, dig the registry and ... you got it!\n\nI hope this short analysis will be helpfull. Again, it's not all here. Dig the net, read security forums, and so on if you need 100% protection.

On a Mac you can use Filevault (system preferences) or you can create encrypted disk images with Disk Utility (Applications:Utilities) and store your sensitive data in them. \n\nYou're never really safe with Windows, but there are ways to lock folders. Try doing a web search for locking folders.
