[X-Newbies] Blocking folder access in Tiger on G5.

[Brian Durant]

I am trying to block access to a folder in my User folder. There isn't
anyone else in the house that knows my password, so I should be OK
then. I don't want to have to mess around with an encrypted Disk Image
when it isn't needed. Many thanks.
