          You'll find that many modern OSs have built in support, including Windows, Linux and BSD. What OS are you using (eg "Windows 7 Pro" or "Ubuntu 11.04" or "FreeBSD 8.2").

                T r u e C r y p t
                Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows 7/Vista/XP, Mac OS X, and Linux
                Main Features:

                Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.

                Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.

                Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).
