Learn How To Hide Files and Folders On Your Computer

By: Michael D. Fischer

Do you have files and documents that are very sensitive on your
computer that you wish you could hide from others? Chances are
you do. You may have important work documents that you need to
keep away from your kids or a secret letter you need hidden from
your spouse. In any case, there are several ways to hide these
documents of interest.

SEOWave Internet Solutions has developed software to help
consumers hide their private documents and files. "We determined
through research that users wanted an easier way to secure
private documents using an easy, step-by-step secure software
system" said Michael D. Fischer, SEOWave.com. "There were
several ways to hide files. We wanted to create a simple, yet
effective way to hide files for consumers."

The Windows based program is called FileHidingSoftware.com
(http://www.filehidingsoftware.com).

There are other ways to hide software on your computer. For
instance you could:

1. Save your documents to a floppy disk or CD.

2. If you have a website, you could upload the information to a
directory. There are several programs that will allow you to
upload your files. IPSwitch (http://www.ipswitch.com) and Simple
FTP Client (http://www.simple-ftp-client.com) (Don't forget to
password protect your website's directory!)

3. You could create a virtual folder (a fake folder). One
example is the Control Panel. The control panel is not really
folder. Not convinced? Try searching for it on your local hard
drive. I bet you can't find it. :)

With this in mind, Fischer wanted to create something simple for
users.

After determining that most people wanted something easier to
use, Fischer went to work overseeing the development of software
that could securely hide files and folders with a "click of a
button".

"It's much easier than the other options I mentioned", Fischer
added.
