Sure you can Ryan. Just go to control panel, click the folder that says 'passwords', and click on change password. If you didn't have a password before, leave blank where it says 'old password' and type in your new password. click apply or ok, and DONE.

anyone could just cancel that I believe and still get into your computer and files. If you go to your bios there should be an option for a power-on password in there, then one would HAVE to get the password right to get into your computer (or just clear cmos.....) Good Luck

Try BootLocker 7.55 Desktop security Software for your PC. http://www.bootlocker.com
"TheLock" was the best but is not totally compatible with WinME.
