Ok, I saw this topic:

USB Lock/Encryption

and at first I thought I had found a solution to my question, but instead it just confused me further.

Here's the deal:

I would like to partition my 488 mb flash drive into two sections:

Section 1, which is public, (unencrypted, no password needed to access)

and Section 2, which is private, (encrypted and password protected)

Getting rid of Windows Autorun

Submitted by Jhegg on May 17, 2007 - 4:26pm

When I first started with PortableApps I installed APO Usb Autorun to launch portable apps automatically. Lately when I connect my drive Windows autorun comes up, it didn't before, and asks me what I want to do. I would like it to just dissapear. It gives me the option to "take no action" but the checkbox to make the computer do this every time is greyed out.

Why did it just start appearing now? What can I do to get rid of it?

Eject Button

Ya, I am sorry if this is answered somewhere, I did not look as hard as i could have. In the picture of the protable Apps menu there is an eject button in addition to a exit button. However, i do not have an eject on my version. I am running it on my iPod and i was wondering if it just did not work with those or if it was removed.
