Create a USB lock code!!

Is there anybody know how to create a code that can be put into a USB flash Driver and generate a encrypt code so we can lock that USB. For example if I have a USB flash Driver and I want nobody knows what do I have inside it even if they found it.

I already knew the code that can make the VB complied code auto run just like when you insert your CD/DVD into your CD/DVD player.

:thumb: Another things, this is the code for you if the person that entering password but 3 times wrong then all files inside the usb will be auto delete :D

Code:

---

Public Sub DeleteAllFiles(ByVal strFolderSpec As String)

On Error GoTo Handler

Dim oFs As New FileSystemObject
Dim oFolder As FOLDER
Dim oFile As File

If oFs.FolderExists(strFolderSpec) Then
Set oFolder = oFs.GetFolder(strFolderSpec)
On Error Resume Next
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
oFile.Delete True 'setting force to true
'deletes read-only file
Next
End If

Exit Sub

Handler:
MsgBox Err.description, vbCritical, "Error " & Str(Err.Number)

End Sub

It has been invented it called a U3

Thank you for advertised that product for me, but it is not what i'm looking for. I'm trying to find some thing that can be make by ourself not other product.

Cheers,

First of all, we will need to confirm if windows will auto-run any files on a USB drive. In case of CD-DVD drive, it does. For USB i am not sure. If windows does not run any files automatically when it first detect it, probably it is impossible to so call lock the USB within USB itself.

What you're looking to do can be done. It can't easily be done in VB. You might want to rethink things and use an existing product, like truecrypt. It can turn most of the drive into what looks like a single file, even if someone gets the password.

if you look at U3 website and goes to its demo, u can see that when the guy plugged in the usb, usb auto ru the program and ask for paassword. so it can be done but we just don't know the code yet..

Al42: sorry i tried to look up http://www.truecrypt.org/ but it didn't work. Could you please recheck the link for me please!

Thank you very much.

the site is not working for me, either.

in the meantime, you can read the truecrypt wiki to catch up on the background.

I tried SourceForge.net, but it seems that what they have are links to truecrypt.org

The download from SourceForge fails without error message.

That's the only URL I can find for the program, so I put the zip on my site for download. http://www.Webdingers.com/truecrypt-4.2a.zip. It should download directly from there.

thank you very much, the program's running perfectly good. Everything fine.

Cheers

The original site appears to be back with a new version dated yesterday afternoon. (That's probably why the site was down.)

yeah, i got it today as well.. Thank you very much
