After finding out about FileGuard [Version 2.72], my friend let me try
it out.  I really like it, but it kept freezing up my MAC during boot
up...which requires me to keep rebooting many times...it crashed
whenever AfterDark came on.  It is also a little difficult to set up the
access priviledges to everyone...and it is easy to disable the
protection.  
    The only way you are going to have a lot of security on the MAC is
to have it either in the operating system or in the hardware itself. 
The freezing up is so upsetting that I removed it.  I would buy it if it
didn't freeze up soooooo much!!!!!  I'm still look for a better file
protector...
