I have a CDEV/INIT called MacPassword, written by Art Schumer (of MacSnoop
fame).  I'll post this to comp.binaries.mac after the holiday break.

This will acomplish what you want, by controling access to your HD with a
password.

For those of you that have not seen it before, MacPassword has a cdev
interface for configuration control, and when booting, you are requested
to enter a password to gain full access to any protected volumes.

There is also a guest feature to enable you to make certain folders
visible and leave others protected.

One of the new features is a "Protect Now" button, the function of which
seems fairly self explainatory (to protect the system while away from your
desk).
