Is it possible to protect an USB memory stick with a password? Does it have to be a special kind of memory to be able to use a password? I wouldn't want to make my documents one big protected winzip package or something, too much work. I have a A-Data USB 2.0 Agenie Pro 128MB. Thanks in advance for any answers.

I have a SanDisk USB stick, and it comes with, and is available online, a utility to lock the stick. Maybe check the company website.
