Lock up your executables!

There aren't many freeware encryption tools (that I know of) that will successfully password-protect executables. Crypto-lock does it, and does it well. To run an encrypted EXE, just enter the correct password and the file will decrypt and run automatically. And after quitting a program, it even overwrites the decrypted EXE prior to deleting it--again, all of it done automatically. The interface, while having a snazzy skinned look, is not that intuitive, and takes some getting used to. Also, when you run it, it doesn't remember the last folder used--a real pain. Still, if you want to password-protect your executables (or any other file), Crypto-Lock does the trick nicely.

Good self-extracting encryption program

Although this program's functionality is available in most modern zip/unzip programs, it does work quite well. The self-extracting functionality is good for when you have to send an encrypted file to someone, but don't want to make them download the same decoder.
