Hey, I got my iPod Shuffle and I love it. I noticed, though, that some other USB HD's have password protection... are there any programs for download to add this option to my Shuffle?

Thanks.
 
I don't think there is because those drives have software flashed in their BIOS that communicates with the software on the computer. This is the case with the usb drive that I own.
 
...or you can make an encrypted disk image with Disk Utility, and then put it on the Shuffle and put all the documents inside it.

this is what i do...make a small (or large) disk image and put your important files/docs here. works very well.
