I have to agree with I_Have_No_Account on this one. I don't see how an external HDD will in any way limit access to your "C" drive. Only making a new user account in Windoze that is configured to lock all other folders on the HDD except for the LimeWire shared folder will give you the most security. I don't pretend to know all of the facts about this topic, and I am merely making a statment based on what I know. I don't keep anything particularly valuable on my hard drive (and if it is valuable it's already encrypted) so I'm not too concerned about this. Good luck.
