Hi all,

I'd like to be able to keep some sensitive data on my K750i's memory stick (bank details etc). Is there a way to password protect this data so that it can't be accessed via the phone or by removing the stick and reding it externally?

TIA

If you want cipher only files (not folders), use File Protect http://seclub.org/old/appz/fi[....]3cf8d8132ee576e14a73b066561e9d This app's only for K750 & W800. Don't cipher videofiles! Coz you can't decipher it. Luck!
More one app can cipher files - MobyExplorer

If you want to protect bank details, use CODE MEMO.. Already built into your phone.

If you want to protect your porn however...

Use MobyExplorer: http://www.bermin.net . It has strong file encryption and you can edit your encrypted file using the built in text editor.

No, it really is bank details, but I'd like to be able to protect a text file copied over from my PC, since that's how I keep my sensitive data.

good app indeed,

No, it isn't. As I explained, I want to protect a text file, not a single entry in CodeMemo.
