Thanks guys, I'm just glad you agree.

@Mr Khan

Yeah, I also wonder how far do they go. If you have a password-protected file and they want to see it, can they force you to open it ? Do they even look for hidden files or they just look around the desktop and other common folders ? What about your internet browser's history ? (which we should delete regularly anyway...)

All this aside, you could always get a dvd or an external hard drive and just save your files there before traveling. I wouldn't take the risk, if possible. And you certainly can't predict what they would see as "child pornography", so I wouldn't recommend having Queen's Blade in there or any other "risqué" anime. I seriously doubt they would care about any pirated content though, unless maybe an obvious case of a mainstream movie, which I don't know how they could prove to be pirated anyway.

I'm surprised they can go through your laptop without any sort of accusation to begin with...
