Re: encrypting wmv files

why not .ZIP the file and put a password on that? then you can rename the zip to whatever and people will think it's something different, so won't even bother trying to open it.

You can create self-extracting zip files... All you need is a program like Winzip to create them, not open or extract them.

Re: encrypting wmv files

F2 it (to rename) and just change the extension. When you want to use it, change it back, but it won't work until you do (and you know the correct extension) so no-one else can see it.

Upload to Internet... Use a Password on the Folder on the Website & your DONE... But let me Guess, you not allowed to use Internet either?

Rename the File sounds like the BEST way for you. MyFile.txt or MyFile.php will work I guess. Just enable the "Show File Extentions" on Windown (if your Allowed to)
