"Very User Friendly and Simple."
Pros: I have tried ABI-Coder and Finecrypt, but this is the best, its very simple and has no learning curve. I can't vouch for the strenght of encryption as i am a novice but is good enough to keep snooping amateurs away from seeing your files.
You dont have to select individual files, just point to a folder and it will do the rest.
Cons: Doesnt automatically leave a start menu folder shortcut,I had to do it manually. You can leave a shortcut on Desktop, if you are not computer savvy

Version: Blowfish Advanced CS 2.57.00.122
Pros: Can't really say.
Cons: I tried to encrypt a test folder containing 4 jpegs, a text file and a folder with several other jpegs. It only encrypted 2 of the "loose" jpegs, which is very odd, as the four were all from the same shoot, and it also encrypted the text file. The other 2 "loose" jpegs and the folder were not encrypted. I found the whole thing unsettling and uninstalled it. Instructions didn't help me at all.
