Hey, everyone.
Is there any way to password protect the entire iDisk? For example, is there a way that the computer will prompt the user for a password when the iDisk icon is clicked? (I know that it is possible to do this for the Public Folder.)

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Short of signing out of Mobile Me from System Preferences, I haven't heard of any (but am very interested in knowing too!)

it is password protected (with the MobileMe account password) You need it when you first mount the volume. It's just the password has been saved.

yes, but there's no way to disconnect at exit so that at a new access is necessary to insert the password ?
(both on windows and mac world)
