There are some utilities I've heard that help to secure the Windows95/98/ME
But no matter what you are trying you still will be able to boot from floppy and get access to the HDD.

Secure for viewing, modification, or deletion?

You can secure them from view, mod, run, etc, with simple encryption programs. Try PGP Desktop Security.

I'm a 2000 user so I'm not quite sure if this is availible. As in 98 you were able to make programs hidden, is this an option for you? Another thing I have read in multiple articles is that ME has its own built in security to keep from having System Files altered. For your personal files, have you tried to put password locks on them? (My suggestion is to use one folder to store all your personal files, even if you have to store multiple folders in this perticular folder, and use the password protect mode on the folder)(From there if needed add the hidden feature if availible.)
