With the tremendous amount of computing because of the wide usage of internet it is observed that some user(s) are not able to manage their desktop with antivirus software properly installed. It is happening few times that we allow our friends, students and colleagues to sit on our networked PC. Sometimes the user is unaware of the situation that there workstations are unsecured and so some one else could also be monitoring your flow of information and your most important data could go haywire, resulting into leakage of most confidential data to unwanted or malicious user(s). Example of some such documents could be question paper designed by the faculty member by various universities. Now a day most of the universities are having the biggest threats about the question papers and many other confidential documents designed by their faculty members.

This technique, if used, in positive direction could be of great help to solve such a problem and even other.
