File and folder permissions work great on an NTFS formatted drive - if you
are the only administrator.
If you have Windows XP Professional, you could use EFS. Better know what
you are doing though.
Otherwise - a Google search may turn up a third party solution - even
something as simple as putting the files in a password protected ZIP file.

I've started recommending that users with Private or Financial files
use a small Flash memory Thumb Drive. Most now ship with some
form of Encryption, using a simple password. While it shouldn't be
a "permanent" storage media, it's handy and keeps the information
from residing on the drive when not needed. SanDisk now offers a
pretty robust Encryption/Protection software with it's USB drives.
CruzerLock software download here:

**Biggest danger with Thumb drives isn't data loss, but loosing the
Thumb Drive itself, so a keychain or lanyard is a good idea.

A brave person would have searched this group looking for this
information, which has been covered time and time again.
However, you are a meek person. Too bad. I only answer brave people.

Another (freeware) solution is Truecrypt. It mounts an encrypted
containter file as a disk encoded to a passphrase.
