    Encrypt them with TrueCrypt .
    I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it.

    The only solution I know is to buy a pen drive with a read-only switch, enabling which would make them function like any CD/DVD ROM. The software solutions are also good enough, but they have their side-effects.
