Password Protect USB

[GeneKam]

HEy guys, i am just wondering if there is any aplications that will allow me to password files or folders on my usb under mac. I found alot of windows aplications, but nothing for mac so far, any ideas?

You could create an encrypted disk image and put stuff on it. but thats mac only of course.

ps- there is a True-Crypt port coming to macs but I have no idea when.
edit: THANK YOU BRAND. osx truecrypt is here! WOOOHOOO

Give the open-source multiplatform TrueCrypt a try.

wow great, this was a quick response. Umm how would i do the encrypted image, I usually just browse the web and do photography on mac, i am not too into it as it comes to small things like that. And i saw true-crypt for pc looks great, i guess i will stick with image until the port comes out!
