You might consider that it may be possible for admin people to remotely view your screen and log your system.  Thus, 
they may be able to see the data whenever you do, or they may get your password and then see the data whenever they 
want.

Hi,

I have some highly confidential data that I frequently access on in a folder that is on my desktop computer (ie 
win2k).  I want to make sure no one but me will able to see this data.  Does anyone know of any freeware\shareware 
that will 1) en-crypt the data in the folder and/or  2) require a password to open up the folder?  I need to make sure 
a person like our lan admin or desk top support person can not figure out a way to get to the data.
