Best way to hide/protect images from snoopers?

Hiya,

My friend has just got an N95 8gb and im sorting him out with all the best applications etc. Ive managed ok so far but today he told me that sometimes he leaves his phone around the house and his mum sometimes has a nosey. On his phone he has images of women that hes doesnt want her to find lol

Soooo i reccomended a directory encryption prog but i have no idea which one is best. Also, If the password stopped acces to the folder, would the gallery still show the adult pictures?

All ideas welcome or alternative methods

thanks

p.s. i havnt done a search as i wanted some ideas 1st, sorry

Or to do it simply, set the attributes to hidden in Windows/X-Plore

advanced device locks is a program you can use.

I go with the hidden method, I take all the photos I want to hide and put them in a seperate folder and hide them. That way if someone knows how do use x-plore they still have to find where I hid them
