We have been using FoolProof for over one year now and really like it. We
are slowly replacing all our FileGuard security with FP. We have had
various and intermittent problems with FileGuard but have had almost NO
problems with FoolProof. We are eagerly awaiting version 3 (hint, hint,
FoolProof folks).  It supposedly addresses some of interface,
features/deficiencies. The 2.0 version has a few things that i really want
changed in the new release and they (SmartStuff) promise that I won't be
disappointed.  Their tech support is EASY to get a hold of and friendly
AND helpful. Best of all FP is really inexpensive.  50 license packs are
around $ 14 per copy.

Other than that-- I recommend it highly.

One limitation in current version: security on the start up drive is
carried forth to any external SCSI drives that are attached. Maybe 3.0
will fix this.
