Thanks,
what about if I have other memory sticks.  Can I use the same software on
the other drives?

Easiest of them all is simply buy a USB pen which already has encryptian
software built in.  I bought a 2 gig pen from PC World last year and I think
it had something like disk lock pro on it.  The software particians the pen
into 2 drives, one open drive which has the security software on it and
another data section which you can only open bia using the software on the
open partician and entering the password.  You can assign the ratio of
partician so that your data section is the majority of the pen.  A nice
touch is that if someone gets the pen and tries to access the data section,
the program will automatically reformat the drive if the incorrect password
is tried more than 5 times.  I think the pen was about £20 or so.
 
Just look around, you'll find a lot of pens have this protection software.

Hi Ali,
 
1 Solution might be a small encryption  utility called "cryptainer, it is
free and will allow you to password up to 25mb either on pc or USB  device.
You can have a look on:

Hi,
is it possible to password USB memory stick so no one can access the data on
it?  Surely there must be a small utility that can be saved on individual
sticks to do this.  Does anyone know such a utility?
