On Windows: go to the directory where your logfiles are stored, select them, right-clic, select properties, clic the 'Advanced' button, check the 'Encrypt contents to secure data' checkbox and apply. You are now the only one to be able to transparently access those files ; other users will see them as encrypted.

if you want to encrypt some files, use an encryption ;P
Even if you encrypt the channel-talk with blowfish you can read it plaintext. So it will be saved plain text to the logs.
You could use PGP or Drivecrypt for fileencryption... better Drivecrypt Pro with encryption of the entire system.
On linux you could use a crypto container.
