As regards using PC-LOK to prevent unauthorized hard drive access - I test installed it on my system a couple of years ago, and promptly lost the un-install floppy due to a bizarre accident (don't ask). I found NO WAY of uninstalling or bypassing the protection, short of a low-level format of the drive. A regular DOS format, and partition deletion/recreation did nothing but erase my data, the protection was still in place. In summary, it worked really well...
