Product Description:

FileGuard X5 creates virtual safes that can be used to store sensitive files. Users can store safes on file servers or external disks, and can keep them on home or office Macs with no risk of anyone opening them. They can even send FileGuard X5 safes to friends, family or colleagues, who can access files contained in those safes, as long as they have the password, even if they don't have FileGuard X5 software. FileGuard X5 can create safes of any size, for any kind of document, and also create special safes to protect e-mail and instant messaging transcripts.

FileGuard X5's safes are accessible from the Finder, and open with a double-click. Safes act like folders; users can add files to them by simply dragging files to a safe's icon, and FileGuard X5 can securely delete original files when this is done. Safes have floating avatars, unique icons that display above other windows, so users can drag files to them regardless of which other windows are visible. Users can also access safes from the Intego menu, located in the Mac OS X menu bar, and from standard Open and Save dialogs.

I don't see any reasons here or on Intego's site for why someone might want to pay for this "virtual safe" product ($50 for a single-user license) instead of using standard OS X encrypted disk images for free. Is this just a front-end to the latter?
