Assuming the drive is formatted NTFS, create a user group called "DENY D
DRIVE" (or similar), edit the NTFS permissions for that drive to add that
group with the DENY flags set for everything.

With this done, add user accounts to this group to deny them access to the
D: drive, and remove them from this group if you want to allow them access
at a later date.

Assuming c is the system drive then you can give ntfs permissions to only authorized
users to the other drive. Keep in mind that anyone with administrator credentials
[wither authorized or hacked] can gain access to folders where they do not have
permissions by first taking ownership. See the link below on ntfs permissions. It is
written for XP but applies to W2K also. --- Steve
