Designed for keeping your data stored on your PC private, File Secret is a utility which allows you to hide, protect, lock and safely destroy files. Before running it for the first time, the program prompts you for a username and password, in order to ensure limited access. It consists of several applications designed to keep you from disclosing any important data: the file shredder allows you to destroy (delete) files beyond recovery; the EXE lock allows you to password protect your executable files, thus to restrict access to the selected files - you cannot run these applications unless you know the password which unlocks them. You can also hide a secret file within picture files (BMP, GIF, JPG) using drag-and-drop. HTML Secret is a component which allows you to write messages which will be saved in HTM format and encrypted with strong encryption algorithms. You can also generate, export and import password protected records.
Pluses: Besides all security features mentioned above, there is another component which wipes out all recent data on your computer: history, temporary Internet files, recent documents, typed commands in "Run", cookies, browser temporary and recent files etc.
Drawbacks / flaws:
In conclusion: A very good security enhancer, nicely designed, easy to use, fast and effective.
