Hello,

Does anyone know of an encryption package that can encrypt a Win 2000 folder
and all its contents. The folder and all encrypted files should then be
accessible by typing in a passphrase which would be valid until the user
logs off.

In effect I want a combination of EFS and PGP. Unfortunately, EFS can be
bypassed by resetting the Windows password for the user. PGP on the other
hand requires decryption for each file and is not transparent to the user.

Thanks

Chuck
