Application: FreeOTFE
Category: Utility: Encryption
Description: FreeOTFE is a free, open source, "on-the-fly" transparent disk encryption program for PCs and PDAs
Using this software, you can create one or more "virtual disks" on your PC/PDA. These disks operate exactly like a normal disk, with the exception that anything written to one of them is transparently, and securely, encrypted before being stored on your computer's hard drive.

Thanks for the posting. That is now my default On-The-Fly encryption software from now on. Bye bye TrueCrypt
Thank you for this great news.
I already used FreeOTFE for some time but a portableapps package is great.
The feature that made me choose OTFE instead of TrueCrypt is the possibility to assign a label to mounted disk. This feature may be available in TrueCrypt but I never found it
And of course FreeOTFE Explorer to keep everything available even without admin rights.
