Best way to keep files password protected on the N95 8GB?

Hello again, everyone... I was wondering, say there are certain files I want protected so others can't see them (images and videos etc.) how would I do this? Do I need some third party software? If so, which one would you recommend that I could use?

I use CallMan to 'encrypt' stuff (it just changes the file extension to .jpg+ so that the gallery app can't read it). I've not used Media Safe but that's pretty popular...

You can use the inbuilt Zip application.

Run Zip, add the file(s) you want protecting, add a password then delete the originals.
