How to Password Protect any Image File in Windows

Amit Banerjee over at Techie Buzz found a cool little Windows App called Lock Image:

You can lock any image file with a password just as you lock files and folders in your computer. Lock Image is yet another portable application for windows that converts an image into an exe file and password protects it. After that, anyone trying to view the image will have to enter the password to unlock it. Techie Buzz Lock Image is great for password protecting images and converting them into exe files. It’s portable and you do not need any installation. No compatibility problems and even a kid can use it easily.
