If you have Vista higher than Vista Home, you can right click the folder and go Properties > Advanced > Encrypt Contents to Secure Data (details). If this option is greyed out for you, you'll have to use some third-party software. Winzip works well: when making a new archive, click the "Password" button in the setup dialog box. Or you could just do a google search on "freeware encryption".

Hi, caliga
You can try to use KaKa Folder Protector for folder protection. It can easily lock,Scramble and Encrypt Folder on Vista.
