Can SecureDevice be used to mount from a network volume? This would be
a very very useful feature, although I'd imagine a total headache to
actually implement...
The one thing I dislike about SecureDevice (even before using it) is that
it can be zapped by a frustrated would-be-codeanalyst... Of course now
that we can back it up to tape, it's not that big an issue. :-)
Also, the old SecureDrive program had a protection feature in the TSR, but
in any case, it wouldn't help if the TSR was killed off, or if our bad-guy
booted from a floppy. He could still kill the drive...
But that's not too huge an issue as anyone can zap your hard drive if they
wanted to in any case... :-I
