Hi Richard
Thanks for your help
I have installed DriveCrypt and Evidence Eliminator, they are very good
and do a really fine job, but they are rather hard to understand at
first, but i managed to work it out in the end. I couldnt get JAP to
work though, but i dont really think they would take that much effort
to spy on me lol.
It just shows there is so much more to security than having an
antivirus and firewall installed. I never knew there was so many other
programs needed to protect your PC.
Thanks again
