Just by call DOS function FindFirst and FindNext, I can still see it. This time
it's even worse. Because after I find the hidden directory, I'll discover all
the files hidden in this directory.

PC does not provide real security doing this kind of things. If your PC is
connected to a network, try to hidden your file in your network account.
