            I can see password protecting individual files, if they're accounting files or whatever, but adding a second password just to do so in the name of "security" is idiotic!

                Yes, but that means that when people are done, they have to rezip the folder and re-set the password on the zip. That won't work.

                  Implement a quick FTP server and have the folder location redirect to ftp:\folderlocation.location.com (internal address) This would cause a ton of other issues but they would be prompted for a username and password.

                            No Sir, redirection is not allowed. They need to upload the files manually -Manual connecting to FTP server.

                              was laughing this morning with your reaction on my post.
                              I told them that, we will only make things complicated with their request.

                                          Well, you could create them new but super secret user names and passwords and only give them access via those user accounts.

                                          ...aaaaaand for extra fun, games and work...
                                          make them all RDP to a terminal server to do their work... because secrets.
