How to lock a file completely from being read

Do you have any idea if the program hides files or dir from a remote backup ? I'm trying to avoid a massive full backup of my laptop from my evil IT group ... any other suggestion ? I think their are using "Connected Backup" program (http://www.connected.com/).


Thnx,

Why don't you try "File Lock" ? (http://www.toplang.com/filelock.htm)

It prevents even some defragmentation programs from opening files. While this only needs file access to read attributes, a backup program needs full read access, so this should work flawless (lock + hide should be perfect in such a case). It has a simple interface, but it does its job.

You should wrap the file up in an .exe that is tied to a Sentinel Superpro... I hear those are uncrackable :P
