What's your favorite program for locking folders or files from prying eyes

I'm running Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and have installed True Crypt to create encrypted volumes. Works great. Now I want to lock just a few folders and maybe a few .txt files from prying eyes. I'm not looking for encryption on the order of True Crypt, but don't want anything too weak that an average hacker could crack. Any suggestions?

"You can try Free Hide Folder :

Free Hide Folder is a free computer
security software to hide your private
folders. It is very useful to keep
your personal data away from others.
Others will not know where your
personal files exist and they will not
be able to accidentally view them. You
can hide folders simply with a few
mouse clicks. Free Hide Folder is
protected by a password that you can
change or remove at any time."

I happen to use Cryptainer LE (now Cypherix LE) for this sort of thing. It is something like TrueCrypt,but rather simplisitic and automatic, but powerful enough. It mounts up as a virtual drive, just like TrueCrypt. 25 MB limit, if that's a concern.
