What do you recommend for encryption of a removal hard drive on a
Windows XP system? This drive moves from computer to computer so I
would like to keep the application on the removable drive if possible.
Maybe something that pops up for authentication when the drive is
accessed.

Okay, I looked at the instructions and it seems quite complicated and
involved in setting up. Isn't there something easier to set up?

If you mean is it powerful then yes.

How difficult can it be to copy just one .exe file? Geez. They even
give you a wizard (Tools -> Traveler Disk Setup menu in installed
program).

Portable Mode http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/truecrypt-portable

If copying a file or running a wizard is beyond your abilities then go
get an encrypted USB flash drive. However, you'll probably have to
read its manual to use it.
