Default Do you use any tool to encrypt your photos?

I use an image encryption software to encrypt my photos, what do you think?

I can't see a need for anything different to what I use for other files (not that I've felt a need to encrypt any of my photos in the first instance). Is there any benefit that image specific software could bring as opposed to something like Truecrypt?

ps. I removed the link - for a brand new user, it looked a bit spammish in a one-line post

Any particular reason why you want to encrypt your photos? Is there a reason you want to encrypt photos specifically, as opposed to other files?

Judging by the removed link, I'm guessing we'll not hear much from this poster again.

Willing to be wrong. but . . .
