Hi!
(This is my first post here - please be gentle!)
I've recently released the latest version of FreeOTFE and FreeOTFE Explorer, and also a repackaged version in portableapps.com format (as well as U3 format)
For those who haven't heard of it, FreeOTFE is a disk encryption system which allows "virtual disks" to be created on your PC - everything stored on one of these disks is automatically encrypted before being stored on your computer's hard drive (or removable storage such as USB flash drive or iPod). Similarly, decryption is carried out automatically when files are read back again, providing a transparent system for securing data.
NOTE: FreeOTFE uses a device driver, which means that in order to start it, either it's portable mode must be started (which requires administrator rights on the local PC), or the driver needs to be installed on the PC before using it. This may not be suitable for all users - which is one of the reasons FreeOTFE Explorer was created, which has no such requirement.
The summary of the main differences between FreeOTFE and FreeOTFE Explorer can be found at: http://www.FreeOTFE.org/main_explorer_differences.html
