I have some files ie:Quickbooks, etc. that i want to put in a folder and encrypt to give them a little extra protection. Is it possible to do, and if so how do i do it? Thanks for the help.

I have a Disc image with 128 bit encryption, that carries all my sensitive data. Go to disc utility and create a new image. drag your folders to it and it will be secure, as long as you don't have Keychain remember the password...
