Folder Password

[Mike]

Is their a way to set a password for a local folder? ie:
open folder and get prompted for a password.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

No, but if the folder is on an NTFS drive, you can set permissions. Right
click, properties, security...

You didn't say it has to be secure?
you could customise the folder and put this code in the folder.htt file.

<script language="VBScript">
If Not InputBox("password?") = "secret" Then document.location = "..\.."
</script>

works better than you'd think.
