Question USB Flash Drives - can you reccomend one with...

Hi

Looking for a USB Flash Drive 2GB+.

Must have easy to use encryption software that works in the background i.e. like a encrypted drive.

I have looked at drives with built in hardware to do this they are still a little too expensive.

Also noticed a number of drives that come with the software only have a 30day demo, I would like to buy them with the full versions.

Can anyone help.. preferably people that have used or have experiance of their suggestions.

Andi

I have one of these. Got issued it at work. They work well, but are a bit pricey still.

I will have a look.

i would really like something that detects volumes automatically and has safety options for removing the device with a stored volume open. Just to make it easier for none techies.
