Need to protect programs and documents from prying eyes? There are a lot of ways to keep guests (both invited and uninvited) from seeing data on your PC, but one simple method is to password protect the program itself. If someone wants to see your Word file, for example, make them enter a password.
Making that a reality is simple. LockThis! Is a free utility that password protects select programs and documents. Want to protect Word, for example? When you minimize it, hold the Ctrl key. LockThis! Will ask you for a password, and then require that password to restore the program from the taskbar.
You can use the same password for any program you want to protect, or create a unique password for each one. It’s fast and flexible, and, of course, free. Looking for other ways to protect yourself? Don’t forget about My Lockbox, which not only password protects your files and folders, but renders them invisible as well, which makes them really hard to steal.
