@searas without explicitly warning folks to do a Secure Empty Trash it is irresponsible not to do a”srm” on the files vs moving them to the trash.

@Raz re-creating the “expenses” folder caused numerous, false error messages to appear. the interface also did not show the status of locked folders properly. i also had issues with the “hidden” mount points not being found (the “alias” could not be resolved on multiple occasions)

@Alex correction noted. Will try to be more careful :-)

To the folks who are not sure about the advantages, there are many ppl who just want portions of their disk secure either for performance reasons or just because they may have been burned with other solutions. I agree that whole-disk encryption is a much better idea and would prefer to see something like the Travelstar 7K200 or 7K320 http://www.hitachigst.com/portal/site/en/menuitem.9958814a08a37d75797ecae2eac4f0a0/ (if it worked on Macs)
