    Anything you can hide, they can unhide. If its on the HD it can be recovered.

        you can try it with putting a linux partition on it or something like that. but a clean laptop should be better. ask Chris from ATKCash if you want to hear a really funny story about that.

            his notebook was full of porn pics and canadian customs forced him to boot and started examining it. they directly searched for files with attachments like .jpg or .mpg
            fortunately he had several partitions with windows and linux and managed to boot into a linux partition that never really worked - so they found nothing (and because they didn't understand Linux). he got away without anything happening and was really relieved.

            so if you don't have to take them with you - better leave them at home, i think.

                The quick and dirty way would be to go to folder options and choose "do not show hidden files and folders". Then, right click on whatever folder you want to hide and choose "hidden" under the attributes. Of course they're still there, but they won't see them at a glance. Then turn "show hidden files/folders" back on when you get to Vegas and you'll be able to see them.

                  Battuss:

                  Seriously Battuss - they will find "something" if they want. Also, it's not the actual customs folks that are the problem - they are just doing what they do. It's just that other elements are sheer crap - they'd piss on their mothers grave for a dollar - totally incapable of even looking after their own.

                  If your are just talking of information - like webmaster stuff - nada problem.
                  It also may be an idea to encrypt your drive anyway in case it gets stolen.

                  Ya can try Bestcrypt, fucks em up nicely and takes time to crack - tho I got more if you want to know about em!

                    You keep doubting it, once you mailed enough for them to take your ass down
                    for good, you will be praying you never had that on your comp at all.

                                      Look at this asshole, I give him an advise and he isults me.

                                      And I don't steal galleries. You're making these things up because you're a backstabbing bitch that is jealous of other peoples sucess. You are hypocritical, greedy, vengeful, cowardly, and generally not good.

                                      In other words, go fuck yourself.

                                        zip your shit, rename the extention to a dat, move it into c:\backup

                                        if they ask what it is tell them you have another computer at home that backs up to the laptop. If they ask you to open the file, the program that opens it is on your home computer.

                                                get a mac, then you can just put a . infront of the folder name and it goes invisible. it's unix.

                                                  Have you tried www.twtk.com , it has something that create a virtual drive on your pc that is accessible only by you.
                                                  .

                                                    It all depends on the flunky on the other end of the counter:
                                                    I was forced to leave my MP3 players behind because the battery died and I could not show them what it was.

                                                    My suggestion: fdisk, low-level format and install Lindows.
                                                    or, if you are not too keen on that maybe try to FedEx it to your room - declare/list it as a TOY.

                                                    Oh yah, as for a program ... hell yah http://fspro.net offers a program titled HIDE FOLDERS. It is a limited demo and it is very easy to use.
