I'm a noob at this stuff so sorry if I'm asking a stupid question.

I was previously using zips to password lock some files but WinRar is having issues adding files to a locked zip, so I was thinking of giving encryption a try. I'm mainly trying to encrypt a couple of folders of pics & movies as well as some personal info. I'm thinking that I've got about 5 or 6 gigs of stuff that needs to be encrypted and a lot of it are files i infrequently access

I read what a lot of you on here recommended and dL'ed TrueCrypt but it seems too complex for the simple stuff I'm trying to do, so I just thought I'd ask if there's anything else you all recommend, or if I should just go back and give Truecrypt another shot.

I highly suggest TrueCrypt. It might seem like overkill but it can do just what you need as well. Just make an encrypted container and then treat that as you would a zip file.
