truecrypt

i have found tutorials on their official forum and on the internet about how to make a truecrypt rescue bootable usb stick.

I'm guessing anyone who can answer will know what that is already, but it is basically just a way to boot into the system using a usb stick instead of a DVD.

But the only problem is all of these tutorials involve using Grub4Dos, and i cannot run Grub4Dos on 64 bit windows 7.

Is there any other alternative method? Thanks!

So, I've got an app at work that encrypts a string using ColdFusion.
