Cryptainer LE is a totally free 128-bit file and disk encryption software. It is an easy to use encryption application that creates encrypted "vaults". One can store any kind of data in them. It creates a 128 bit "vault" that encrypts all files by simply dragging and dropping them into this vault. Additionally, it lets you create secure e-mail files that you can send to anyone.

    Just started using it and like it.
    The LE has a 25mb per container but an unlimited numer of containers.
    Good for storing passwords and other sensitive files.

    Actually the container has been enlarged to 25 megabytes and you can create as many containers as you want. I agree that the size is rather skimpy, but I consider the LE Edition as a kind of demonstration what Cryptainer can do.

    This version has some problems with languages which are not internally supported. A minor glitch, but it can irritate.

    Your first heads-up should be the author's claim that it is "impossible for hackers to break it." Whenever the maker of a security product says that, you know they're either stupid or dishonest. According to what I read on another download site, Cryptainer LE is limited to a 5-MB container size. Uhhh... Who can make good use of 5 MB these days? What a waste.
