I want to hide my drive c: from the view on My Computers. I have some personal and sensitive data on the drive which I don’t want my 14 year old son to access.

Not only cannot be viewed but shouldn’t be accessible either through any browsers like IE or Firefox or Google, windows explorer.

Even searching files on it shouldn’t be shown like it doesn’t exist.

Only I can access it either through some password or some key combination with a password.

Is this a registry issue or software solution?

If a software application is there a free version for this?

This is an XP Windows Professional OS.

The default location under Windows XP is under C:Documents and Settings.

I need to transfer my user data which is located at c:Documents and SettingsMaster to a different drive altogether.

Is there a way to do this without inviting errors and system conflicts?

I know there is a way to move the default location of My Documents to a different folder/drive, but I am talking about the

Cannot change the time or date on the taskbar. Whenever I try to change the time by double-clicking on it on the taskbar it says I don’t have the proper privileges to change it. I would not bother changing it if the time or date were correct, but it isn’t.

Even by going to the Control Panel it gives me this same message. What is going on?

By the way,my operating system is Windows XP home edition with SP3 installed .

Date and Time Properties

You do not have the proper privilege level to change the System Time.

Filename contains non-text symbols/characters.  When I opened My Documents I notice that there were files that had non-text characters as filenames.  I have no idea why it got there and what they were. I did try to click on it but could not open nor rename or delete it.  Is it some kind of virus?

I’m the only user of this computer and wondering if I have been infiltrated or something. I do surf the net often and I do have an anti-virus Avast the free version and have religiously updated Avast. 

I hope it’s not a virus and it’s not serious .

Hi,

Computer restarts without any warning.

Windows XP Co Edition (No SP1 or SP2 – I prefer to install the updates separately myself).

  • MS office XP co Edition.
  • MSN 6.2.
  • AIM.
  • Yahoo MSG.
  • Internet explorer (as standard).
  • Windows Media player 10.

I use those Divx codecs also.

Thank you for your time and help.
