File and Folder Protector.

Universal Shield is a very easy-to-use file and folder protection tool which hides files, folders and drives on your 32-bit or 64-bit Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 PC. The program uses a variety of 9 encryption algorithms to complete the task of total protection.

Universal Shield requires a registration code or serial number to activate the full set of features, making this a non-freeware tool. Either way, the user reviews of this program are very high and we suggest you try Universal Shield if you want to protect and encrypt your files and folders from prying eyes.

Since the usage is very straight-forward, Universal Shield can be highly recommended to users without much experience. It's easy, cheap and highly reliable!
