Hi, I need some (c-)code for somehow emulating harddrives, so that you would have a file on your c-drive, and a device driver or something like that would use that file to store all information for a d-drive in it, in such a way that all software thinks there actually is a _physical_ second (or 3rd etc) harddrive.. Why? SFS, (securefilesystem : a util for encrypting your hd) currently requires you to create an addictional partition. Although that is not so hard, there is always a slight danger of data-loss, and more importantly, Norton's Diskreet also does not require you to create an additional harddrive, and that ease-of-use might persuade people to use it instead of sfs, which offers *immensly* better encryption. If I can get that code, the author of sfs has said he'll include it in the program. Please respond via e-mail.
