protect files on CDs and USB drives CD-Lock allows you to encrypt portable data on CDs, DVDs, USB drives and other removable media. It securely encrypts the files, using Blowfish, and can optionally scramble the original file names as well. What makes CD-Lock unique, is that it can transparently decrypt the files on the CD, after the password is entered. It does NOT require you to copy files, then decrypt them - instead just asks for the password and displays the files. The files are automatically locked again when the CD (or other media) is removed. CD-Lock works with regular CD-Rs and does not require to use CD-RWs. CD-Lock disks can be distributed to anyone and will work on any computer running Windows 2000 or XP. (Win 98/ME users can decrypt the files on the CD, but it won`t be done automatically). The user only needs the password, and does not have to install CD-Lock. The program is also very useful to protect data on a portable USB Thumbdrive or similar devices. Even though CD-Lock prevents viewing of your data, it does not prevent access to the CD or media.

Trial Limitations: 30 day trial. Some features disabled.

Dangerously buggy program 1 stars by Neiting
This program is dangerously buggy, even when UN-locked it prevents proper access to the medium/disc it is installed on, potentially can cause loss of valuable data by blocking the write access to the user/applications. Developer was made aware, he acknowledged being able to reproduce the problem, but he would not respond to any email after that. showShow review details
Doesnt do the job 2 stars by randomguy
This program just doesn't do the job, the password protect is not very strong and can be opened easily: i have 2 disk drives on my cdrom drive the cd was password protected in an acceptable manner but my cd burner can open it without any password prompt at all. dont rely on this program to keep your work files safe. If the author wants any feedback i think you should make it more reliable. showShow review details
