    Hi!

    I have bought a laptop. And i am looking for a encryption software that will encrypt my whole hardrive so if it get stolen nobody an access it.

    I have never used such a program before, and I am willing to pay for it as well. Any good suggestions?

    Many people use Truecrypt. It's free and has a great reputation.

    My choice number one would also be Truecrypt if it doesn't work for your needs then I would have a go at Diskcryptor.

    .
    TrueCrypt and DiskCryptor (as already noted). Just remember the three most important things about full disk encryption:
    Backup image
    Backup again
    Backup some more :)
