Help using dsCrypt

Hey all,
I'm trying to get dscrypt working correctly on my jump, and i'm having some problems. whenever i try to drag a folder into dscrypt to encrypt the contents, dscrypt comes back with the error that it doesn't have permission to access the folder.

Drag&Dropping files workes fine, but for encrypting a program with tons of files and multiple folders would just be easier if i could drag and drop the main folder.

any ideas?
