Anyone familiar with a utility which maintains data on your HD in a
strongly-encrypted form, de-crypting in real-time only when the data is
read.

A simple FAT decryption at startup won't do, because obviously the
machine can just be turned off then, and the HD extracted and placed in
another machine for analysis.

Thanks!

BTW, OS/file system can be *nix (supported by Linux preferably), NT, or
even 95/DOS.
