    Are you talking about over a network or just somebody sitting at your computer? Windows handles network security and if it's just your computer, why not just password protect it?

    So why not just password protect your computer if you just want casual protection? If you really want security, you'd need to encrypt the data, as it would be pretty easy to bypass any kind of password if somebody really wanted to. Using Winzip and a password on your files would slow somebody down too.

    I'm not really seeing a visual C++ question here though.

    I'll reiterate what GCDEF says. What's the C++ question?
