I have two solutions for you :
i) Use the Norton Utilities DISKREET program. This one builds a hidden,
encrypted partition accesible only oby those who know the password.
	It is, I think, the way to go.
ii) I once saw a program to do this at oak.oakland.edu, which allowed
you to create a protected partition.Lost the name, though
