Hi...

Is there any workaround in WindowsXP to restrict direct access to harddisk drives (partitions) ?

Some guys are misusing the data in the drives. So, I'm going to create a program to start other programs (a list of three for ten), in the meantime the drive would be restricting direct access..

I mean, no one could directly open drives and locate the installed programs. But only through my program (which I will create in VB) which will list the programs that are allowed to use.

Thanks
