DriveCrypt Plus Pack for denying entry to your pc

I liked the idea of having an encryption program that had "boot
authorization"...in other words, before a pc would boot, you had to
give it a password before the BIOS would boot the pc. I didn't want
anyone being able to use recovery programs on my virtual memory or
scout my pc for "tracks" still lodged in forgotten areas of my
programs.

I bought and used DriveCrypt Plus Pack and encrypted my C:drive and my
programs partition AND my backups partition. (second hard drive).. and
then aftermonths of use, the program suddenly wouldn't accept my
password! Boy was I screwed! The designer of DCPP, Mr. Hafner,
responded immediately to my email and I called him. Through a process
of elimination, we discovered that the problem was my KEYBOARD (and
maybe my BIOS version)! My monitor showed a correct password, but
when we connected my keyboard to a different pc, it was apparent that
two of my aschii characters were not working. I bought a new keyboard
and was able to get into my system.. In the process, I learned a
lesson the hard way, that I have to be able to access backups in case
I need to reformat my hardrive and re-install my OS... now I don't
encrypt 'it...I make an accessible "CLEAN" copy (nothing incriminating
on it) in case I need one.

I think that a program such as DCPP is the way to go to prevent
"authorities" from ever being able to search your computer....BUT,
don't put yourself in a situation where your data is irretreviably
lost due to a hardware problem.. Encrypt your crucial data, but use
DriveCrypt with 1044 bit container encryption to burn a CD( or PGP, or
whatever), so you won't lose everything IF the worst happens..then
hide that CD. Also, follow the "rescue" instructions for if/when the
worst happens" when you buy your program, and export everything
necessary in case the worst does happen... in other words, export
those key stores and such to floppy disks, along with the "rescue.exe"
programs necessary to use them.

I want to publicly thank Mr. Hafner and DriveCrypt Plus Pack for their
customer service, EVEN when I had not bought a service contract.

I recommend their products and their company: www.securstar.com
