You don't. Not with the native tools anyway.

You can use NTFS permissions to ensure that only the people you wish to view
the folder and its contents can do so.
 
Actualy, I would really consider the local security policy
for protecting stuff on your computer. You can always set
the share/security/permisons, but local policy is very
help full.

What part of the local security policy should the original poster change,
and how, in order to set passwords on their folders?
