Password protect folder using right-click context menu
f0dder:
1) Don't store stuff directly on your desktop - make a shortcut to a folder in "My Documents" (or wherever) instead.
2) Depending on how the machine and network is setup, you might be able to depend on NTFS access rights to protect the files; this is slightly more complicated than right-clicking and selecting "password protect", but it's secure(*) and hassle-free while running. Hassle-free does mean that if you're logged in, there's access without entering passwords. Morale? Never leave your machine without hitting Win+L.
3) If you need high-grade security, go for TrueCrypt.
(*): but if somebody has administrative access to your machine, or in the case of roaming user data on a network, the document server, they have access to your files.
