asked on
password protecting CDR / CDRW
I have been searching online for software but I am not having much luck. I found a few places but the software is no longer offered, or the sites are out dated.
Does anyone know of any open source or freeware. I would prefer to not have to pay for the software, it is just for personal use.
OS: Windows xp home.
Thank you for your help

Zip the file and add a password, then burn it.

i was hoping for a differnt solution where i would not have to zip anything, so just when the computer trys to access the cdr it will ask for a password. i know there is software out there i just having a hard time finding it.
Any such software I've ever heard of would only work on the installed computer. I take the CD to mine and I'll read it regardless of the software used. UNLESS you zip it.
Or otherwise package the data into a seperate file type (RAR, LZH, ZIP, etc)
ASKER
there was a few sites i found that stated that the software would be encripted, and i assume a key stored on the cd so it would be able to be accessed from another computer if you knew the password.
Can you post those links? I've never seen such software.

I found this site
http://www.secureburn.com/
but it is very outdated and the software would not run correctly on my machine. back from 2002. I think the arthor gave up on perfecting his software.
I found a few others but with no luck.

From the web site:
Make Self Extracting Archives so you can easily send them to friends and family to view the files securely without them needing CryptoSuite installed.
This is essentially the same thing as creating a ZIP file with a password and turning it into a self-extracting archive.

This actually should work for you. Never seen anything else like it though.
