If you are using Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) there is an even easier-to-use built in feature called FileVault which encrypts your entire home directory automatically once you turn it on.
Both of these are free and available now.
I believe all you need to do for VirtualPC is to have it point to a Mac volume which is encrypted to get your protection.

That's right Alex, I just need to protect some sensitive stuff of my own computer, not to be included in any salable product. In any event, I'm Canadian, and DriveCrypt is German so I really couldn't care less about US cryptography laws.
I'm still looking out for a cross-platform product (as I mentioned in my original post). Unless I find something very soon, I'll be purchasing DriveCrypt next week. In the event that my PC laptop is stolen, I'll use DriveCrypt on my Mac under VirtualPC to resurrect my backed-up protected data.

Rob and Mark- David didn't state his intent for the crypto, but the URL he posted was for a consumer product for disk encryption. Why should he be worried about export restrictions?
BTW I thought US export restrictions were eased because the Feds realized they were really messing things up for US software companies not being able to compete internationally?
