At work I bring my own music and pictures on my own personal USB HDD which I attach to my work laptop. How can I prevent anyone on the network from scanning or gaining access to the files of this portable HDD? I dont have it shared. Is this even possible? We use Windows XP Pro at work and the portable HDD uses the FAT32 file system. Any and all help provided would be greatly appreciated.
