PC Magazine reviews Universal Shield 4

The computer magazine PC Magazine, January 2006, recommends Universal Shield 4:
Universal Shield 4 both encrypts and hides files, folders, or entire drives. Protected items are completely invisible until the password is supplied. Protection remains in place even when the drive is removed and placed in a different computer. The program will optionally run in a hotkey-activated stealth mode, leaving no evidence that anything is hidden. In addition it can restrict access to such system elements as Control Panel, My Documents, and the system time.

Download.com Review of Universal Shield

This utility lets you secure your sensitive information without slowing down your PC. Universal Shield quickly hides files, folders, or entire drives from prying eyes. It also is possible to make certain file types disappear by using a mask. The interface lets you easily see all protected objects. Although the app offers a step-by-step wizard, we found it easier to bypass it and simply hide files with the main interface. Besides concealing items, you can forbid other users from deleting or changing files or accessing the Control Panel. Universal Shield also lets you encrypt files with several secure algorithms. Anyone who shares a computer with others and needs to maintain privacy can benefit from this program.
