Its that discontinued software again... there was another problem abt this I think, did you try booting in safe mode and uninstalling?

do u remember if it encrypted u r drive contents or just locked it. Coz if it encrypted it and then locked it u may forget to get u r data back unless u buy it however if it only locked it then either try
1. Boot in safe mode and try to recover
2. Boot using Norton ghost 12 Bootable cd and recover the data
3. Boot using any linux live cd and recover data
4. If u happen to have a dual operating system try recovering after booting into 2nd os
5. Try to get the Hirens boot cd which will also help u boot and recover the data.

vai...

since you ar using a trial version, pl be sure to unclock your locked drive before trial expires. I had that exp with FolderLock.

Uninstall the software abd clean the registry. restart your pc. if not solved, unplug the HDD and use in other slot. [usually all mobo has two slots for HDD)
