Hello,

I wanted to ask if it was possible for me to password specific files and apps...

I want to password my Firefox which I use for private stuff so that I need to enter a passy every time I start it. I also want to do this to the folder where FF is sitting and it's bookmarks and 1 more folder elsewhere on my pc. Basically I want it to ask for a passy when entering these folders or opening FF and if you don't provide it I want it to give an access denied error.


Is there any easy way of doing this ?
 
It is passworded. It's to stop my mates from nosing around in the wrong places on my pc when they're here. I mean I don't care if they nose around, as long as they don't get to a few ''private'' folders or my browser history :p.
And so I can leave them at my pc without having to worry about private things on my pc.
I have already done stuff like a separate web browser for private stuff ( FF in this case) and all my private downloads somewhere deep hidden in my windows folder, I just want that little bit extra and password protect it though.
