Or TrueCrypt even if you have Windows XP Pro (which has been reported
will not correctly import the previously exported cert key after a
fresh install of the OS which means you can no longer get at your
EFS-protected files). Of course, encryption does nothing to protect
against keyloggers or kernel-mode device handlers to read the files
that you open after opening the TrueCrypt volume or the EFS-protected
file.
