XP Pro offers that, you can get third party software to do
that in Home.

Hi Jim:
Thanks for answering my post so quickly. Saved me a lot of needless
searching. A good new name for this OS would be XP home featureless.

Or, in your case, XP Home "I'm a stupid **** for not doing any homework and
checking if the features I required were supported".

Yup, that's the general idea behind XP Home.

A bit messy, but you can do it using the inbuilt XP Zip facility
- Select files you want password protected
- Right click then Send To Compressed (Zipped) folder
- Open the .Zip folder just created
- Go File / Add Password
- Delete the original files

As far as I know these OEMs aren't even upgradeable. dad2ten

OEM installs are upgradeable.
