Well you don't have to password protect a folder...
You could just make a password protected archive(zip or rar)...
Or you could go all out with TrueCrypt and make some crazy protected partition.
...
All up to you.

Just change the folder props to hidden and change view hidden folders to no.
It disappears, but you can still access it if you know the address and type it in the address bar.

http://h.imagehost.org/download/0214/Locker
Instructions in the .txt
Edit:
iii.Run the folderlocker.exe again
vi.If you want to retrieve the folder run the folderlocker.exe again
The file is now of course called Locker.bat, which means instead of trying to find folderlocker.exe, refer that file to -> locker.bat
(edit the file if you don't trust it, it's safe though - i've done it)
