Hi All,

When I used Windows 98 SE as OS in my system, I will lock folders using ascii character in COMMAND PROMPT using REN command. ( By holding ALT+ 4 digit no.). The renamed folder cannot be opened thru windows explorer.

Now I am using Win XP as OS. If I tried the same way now, but it is easy to open the folder from the Windoes Explorer itself. Could some one please tell me how to a lock a folder in Win XP. ( I don't want any third party software to lock the folder)
