Encryption for the Masses (E4M) is open-source, free disk encryption software for Windows NT/9x/Me. E4M is no longer maintained; it's author (Paul Le Roux) having joined Shaun Hollingworth (the author of the ScramDisk) to produce E4M's commercial successor, DriveCrypt

E4M's source code was used as the basis of TrueCrypt, which although unable to run under Windows 9x/Me, added cross-platform support together with plausible deniability, support for volumes larger than 2GB and 128-bit block ciphers (e.g. AES, Serpent, Twofish).

-'''Encryption for the Masses''' ('''E4M''') is disk encryption software for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] NT/9x. The author stopped developing it when he went on to develop commercial software. Some of the original code became part of the base for [[TrueCrypt]], which (unlike E4M) is cross-platform, provides plausible deniability, supports volumes larger than 2GB, and supports 128-bit block ciphers (e.g. AES, Serpent, Twofish).
