I recently ent away for a few days and brought with me my OCZ Rally USB drive with everything I could need on it encrypted on a portion of the drive. I left the encryption software unencrypted of course so that I could run it and access the software I had protected. When I got to my hotel and tried using a PC in their business center I could access the drive but not run the encyption software(TrueCrypt) because it required a driver to be installed. The PC did not allow drivers to be installed without admin access. So that leads to my question, how can I run this software on a public PC that will not allow me to install the necessary driver? Is there a better encryption app available for free that anyone suggests? Thanks for any help!

use TC without admin access. I believe this is true of any encryption software that mounts as a drive. (TC, Cryptainer and the like)
BCarchive ( www.jetico.com ) is one I've used that doesn't require admin access. YadabyteDisk is another mentioned in these forums.
Steve should get around to it in say, 5 weeks at most.
Otherwise, he should send it to me.
