Asking the same question three days running won't get any more answers. It's just going to annoy those who might have an answer.

You'll need to know:

Streams (particularly FileStream, MemoryStream), as well as cryptography basics. If you're stuck, start with Rjindael encryption.

Not too intuitive at first, but I'm sure you'll get it, if you try.
