Vishal Gupta 4 Report post Posted March 4, 2006 There r many methods to secure a folder in Win 98! 1.) Open DOS and nevigate to the parent folder of the folder, which u want to protect (i.e., If ur desired folder's path is: "D:\drali2\folder1", then nevigate to "drali2" folder and give following command: REN folder1 0255 NOTE: u hv to type "0255" using Num keypad and pressing <Alt> key! Now ur folder will not be accessible in windows explorer. If u want to access the folder, again nevigate to parent folder in DOS and type: REN 0255 folder1 NOTE: again type 0255 by pressing <Alt> key using Num keypad! U can also give 158,159,169,176-224,226-229,231-240,242-245,247,249,251,252,254 instead of 0255. 2.) Open the desired folder and right-click in folder's free space and select "Customize this folder". Choose "Create HTML document for this folder". a document will open in notepad, scroll down until u see: <script language="javaScript"> Hit <ENTER> and insert following lines: var pass=prompt("Enter Password") if(pass!="give ur desired password here") { windows.location="c:" } Here u can give ne location in stead of C:, it'll take to that location, if the password is incorrect! 3.) U can use many s/w available on net, like: http://www.everstrike.com/download.htm http://www.folder-security.com/ http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Utiliti...dows_95_98.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
