Or is there any way that I can protect my files on a USB memory stick?
Right clicking and selecting Sharing and Security only offers me the option to share (which is the opposite of what I want to do).

If I open the drive and select Sharing and Security on individual files, there is an option to Make This Folder Private, but it is greyed out and cannot be selected.

Any ideas please. Thanks in advance.

I already have an "active" Spyware program installed and running. Could THAT be the reason. I thought BitDef was a "stand alone" and therefore would NOT cause the "Don't run 2 at a time" issue

I used an automatic installer program I bought on Ebay to install Windows. After the install, the internet connection seemed slower than normal, but I thought it may have been due to Norton. I removed one of the user accounts and checked the delete all files option, but on pervious restarts Windows kept going to that account and gave a message saying the password was incorrect. I was then redirect to the other account. I have used various online scans to find a virus etc. and have found nothing. So I do a clean reinstallation of Windows? If I should reinstall, what are the steps and format options?

My screen goes black when I turn it on, but the computer doesn't actually go off. The screen thinks the computer is off, but its not. I have no idea how to make my computer stay on long enough to even look for it. Does anyone know what kind of virus this is or what may be going on?

Which is better for keeping my computer running clean and fast? If I were to uninstall McAfee and the firewall that it came with would my computer be unprotected? or will spysweeper serve as a firewall?

I have the following version of Zone Labs ZoneAlarm:

ZoneAlarm Pro version:6.5.714.000
TrueVector version:6.5.714.000
Driver version:6.5.714.000

When I goto the 'Anti-spyware' section, click on the main tab and click 'on' to turn the Anti-spyware on, it doesn't stay on (i.e., if I goto another tab and come back, it's off). Any ideas?

My friend has a computer and when they turn it off the hard drive starts doing strange things. It starts making a dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit noise continuously. Like it is working real hard. But nothing shows on the monitor. The monitor is all blank like the computer isn't on. When they push on the power button it doesn't shut off. Then they unplugged it and it turned off. They turned it back on and it ran normal for a second.. so they tried to turn it off and it did the same thing again. So they just unplugged it again.

It's a dell computer. Any idea what this might mean? Anyone know what it's doing?

I have a feeling that someone I know is emailing me through a different email but pretending to be someone else. I know there are programs to find out if say the ip addresses match but I'm not familiar with what's available. And is it possible to look up IPs through email addresses. I'm looking for something quick and free. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
