Re: encryption software
Another vote for TrueCrypt.
It's currently protecting both my external USB drives, providing full drive encryption for 2 of my laptops, and also providing container based encryption on a couple of other systems.

Re: encryption software
PGP will also encrypt and sign any files and there are front ends to save using all the options in the CLI versions.

Re: encryption software
Been playing with PGP recently, it's certainly another well worthwhile option
