There is an app called Ghost Folder which allows you to create a  
password protected folder. It is not super encrypted or anything like  
that but it would be sufficient for most domestic casual use  
situations. Unsure if that is what you are looking for. Get it from  
Version Tracker , Macupdate, etc. I am sure there are other such apps.
