[QUOTE="Redrobes, post: 3683168, member: 40793"] Hi Ferret, Are you wanting to protect your folders from being accidentally deleted by yourself by using another of your user names or are the folders not owned by any user name you have access to ? The way it reads though is that you want to add permissions for stuff in other peoples user accounts. If you have your own stuff that you have access to or can copy the contents then there is a nifty app called TrueCrypt ([url]http://www.truecrypt.org/[/url]) which creates encrypted folders and files and can mount them as new drives in explorer and use them like any other files. To access them you need to put in a password. Its very useful for a USB Memstick which if you loose then you have the data secure. I know it works for Win2000, XP and X64 versions but not sure about Vista though I would think its probably. Its free anyway so give it a try. I'm told PGP has a cryptor like it too. [/QUOTE]
