I keep it in an invisible folder on my desktop.I use firefox because its easier to clear the history. I also have a separate user account for people who want to use the computer.

You guys are quite silly, "oh no one will ever find them"
I bet they will if they ever do a search for files > 10,000KB quite easily.
Use encryption, truecrypt.org
I do PC repair and come across these "stashes" all of the time, because in order to back up the files on their PC I typically do global searches for large files, since I usually back everything up and I never know where the users may store stuff.
So don't think nobody can find it.
first, opera for me now and firefox for everyone else (fuck internet explorer... no offense to those who use it but it literally SEARCHES for ways to infect your computer).Originally posted by lerkerboi

as for my stash, it can't be found by anybody using my computer because... think of it this way: you'd essentially have to log into an id that you can't possibly know exists. pair that up with the fact that i'm the only one who works with the hardware on my computer and i'm set.

How can you have a secret ID? What's your OS?
I tried Opera, and while it seemed fine, I couldn't get pics to display in fit to screen. Maybe things have changed since then, but when viewing high rez images, it made me scroll to see everything which was a deal killer for me.
I have read nothing but positive reviews of truecrypt. I'm sure I'll monkey around with it one day. Is it complicated to set up?
The only time something got "breached" was when I lost my ipod at school that was loaded with nude pics of my girlfriend, who also went to said school. I'm fine with sharing nude pics, but not with anyone local. Nothing ever came of it, but I feel really dumb because I lost it just 3 weeks after I purchased it. $150 down the drain.
if you disable the user friendly login screen (in xp), you're left with a prompt to enter the username. pair that up with an external drive located inside of my other external drive (they share a case but you have to switch around the cable). the folders in the other drive can only be seen and entered by said username (just a locked/private folder). if you aren't me then you'd have to find the other place to put the cable (you have to move the plastic on the casing up a bit), hack the folders, AND navigate through a maze of shortcuts that take you back to the starting folder (each level looks the same). sounds like a pain in the ass to set up? it took about 5 minutes to set up (except for the other drive in the same case; that took 20 minutes or so but that was done at another time for another purpose).
i think 1313Jr.1313 has da best plan of action... eitha that or go with Mr.puttin-it-in-one-folder-of-a-game---to-another-with-screenshots-of-someone-shaving-nanna's-back---to-a-game-where-u-play-a-chipmunk-playin-"rock, paper, scissors"-againtst-a-retarded-raccoon----to-the-folder-that-says-"DONT LOOK IN HERE, GO BACK AND PLAY THE "CHIPMUNK FUNK GAME" lol that game doesnt sound half bad once u think about it!!Originally posted by 1313Jr.1313
one browser for people other than me and i get the others, lol.
i know i'd play it (and probably get stuck there and forget what i was doing... great plan actually ).
I use two browsers and the browser I use is not on my desktop, only internet explorer is, I've never visited these sites on IE, so when people come over and use it, they use IE instead of what I use
