With the OST TO PST utilities out there, seems to be this file is totally

Sounds right to me. That's why companies like McAfee market products like
SafeBoot. If you have physical access to a device, unless you've
specifically encrypted it, all bets are off.

I'm with you. Our campus is negotiating to get PGP licenses in the near
future, so I'll probably go with that. A bit of extra work to configure all
of our laptops!
