Did we ever find out is the sister-in-law decided to snoop and found porn?

I hope we find out. This is better than day time soaps...

eh... my sister in law is going to stay with us for a bit too.. I have to lock the workstation and I won't let her get access to that particular machine that carries the porn.

she's a hottie though.... hmmm maybe.. damn my wife'd kill me

it's really making sure that all the OTHER porn and playthings are all safely stashed away.

hey...let us know what happened!

you can also use a program called "Magic Folders". Search for it on Tucows or something. Simple program to hide prying eyes.

3-some could happen with porn. Maybe you put links straight to the files and let her start watchin' em! Awww yea!

Even if you password protect your zip archive, it can still be opened and show filenames, while not allowing actual viewing of the files. Simply zip everything, change the extension, and encrypt it.

Do your wives really know how much porn you guys have?
*raises her hand* I know.

I haven't looked at all of it, it'd take too damn long... and Jaid and I have differing tastes.

I want storyline, he could care less so long as there's action.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

When we went about hiding our porn, we moved everything about a dozen folders deep in a gaming folder. This was after trying to make the limited user account, you could still search for everything on the regular one. I probably just did it wrong, but moving everything really wasn't a hassle, and our porn is actually still there *smirks*

the easiest thing is to zip everything up, password the zip, and rename the single .zip file to some random extension. no one will ever find it.

Sorry I got in on this late. Try this next time. Get a program called Hide Folders. Its available here

http://www.fspro.net/

It's free for the demo version and is fully functional with minor limitations. Put all your stuff in a folder and hide them using this program. Copy the program files to a floppy disk and delete it from your hard drive. The folder with your stuff in it is totally invisible-even to searches. Without the host program they can't be made visible. After your sister-in-law leaves copy it back to your hard drive and un-hide your folders.

I downloaded a shareware game (starcraft) and every time i download porn i change file name to sumthin like file982.jpg and put it in Starcraft shareware and no one is the wiser if any one asks just say it is a cinimatic for the game. And if they find it they must be looking.

I've got about 90 GB of porn stuff, mostly websites.
I've got two 120 GB drives, when I know somebody is going to be on my computer when 'I'm not there, I just unplug the porn HD!

Don't forget Internet Explorer...

A) Nuke the History and Temporary Internet Files.
B) Use the registry to ensure that your media players (Windows Media Player especially) doesn't reveal the last few "videos" you've watched. If you don't know how, just bring up a couple videos in WMP to gloss over the recent file list.
C) Relocate your porn, shove it into a zip folder, PW protect it, and rename it to "wouldntyouliketoknow.zip", just to mess with her.
D) Double check your recent documents list. Open up a bunch of boring stuff to make sure it's clear.
E) Do a quick search for *.jpg and *.mpg on your PC to make sure you don't have any loose files lying around.
F) Copy your Favorite's folder to a new directory, and modify the old one to your needs. Once she's gone, copy the Favorites folder back so your links are fine.

Well just to update things for all:

Yes, she did find the stash while her & my wife were doing something on the computer. I was out for the day but when I got home, the 2 of them had their tops off and were making out while watching some video clip. They asked me why I took so long to come home and yada yada yada...

Then I woke up.

She left yesterday and I doubt she found anything. Well if she did, she didn't say anything about it. A part of me is hoping she did see it, she's very hot and 21. Hehe.

Thanks again, guys & gals.

i think you have gotten sufficient answers, let us know how it turns out when the stay is over. That is what I want to hear about. You could go to download.com and get one of those free keystroke programs and see how hard she tried to crack your files. That could be fun too.

1. get FileProtector. Its freeware, and its pretty good. you should be able to FTP it from somewhere. If she trips the folder she'll know you've got something to hide, though.

2. If you run XP, just create a user account for her and dump all your porn in YOUR My Documents folder. That should be secure enough for your purposes.

NOTE:
I would not suggest just hiding your files. A *.jpeg search can expose you pretty quickly, even if your pics are hidden. If she suspects you might have porn on your PC, she might throw that out there. I do it on ANY personal PC I can get my grubby hands on just to see the habits of the owner. I've been quite surprised a few times when I found people who aren't as innocent a they apppear.

If the thinking is that she will not only glance through his files, but will do so in a "forensic capacity," then it's time to lock the computer down, password access only, and don't give her the password.

LOL @ the bump.

I would just do as mentioned, put a password on the account and keep a visitor out completely. Make sure the "administrator" account has one too, or someone will have a back door. Even if you have the XP welcome screen, you can get in via safe mode to the admin account if it has no password or a known one.

The other alternative is to save all porn etc in your profile folder (my documents is a good one) and give the visitor a plain user account. They will have no access to your stash.

Yes, I read the whole thread, but porn on the internal HD is so 1990's. 500gb externals are cheap, and if you're worried about them being found, truecrypt the whole thing to boot.

Just make a guest login with no access to your porn folders and password your regular account.

Login as the guest during the duration of her stay.


It won't stop someone who is computer savvy from booting from a disk, etc. but it will stop family members who are not going to no-shit hack your computer in order to see whether you have porn.
