One option would be to use Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) to encrypt the text of your message. I don't believe that PGP will integrate with GMail but you should be able to encrypt the text for the message and past it into the message.
AnswerIf what you mean is to encrypt the transfer of your email from your computer to Google's servers, you can use the https protocol instead of http. You do that by manually writing "https" instead of "http" in front of the gmail address, in your browser's address bar.
This will only insure a minimal protection against eavesdropping only. Do not take this route if you need strong encryption.
- It is possible to integrate PGP with Gmail. All you need to do is install Firefox and the FireGPG addon. Then you can go to Tools > FireGPG and you can encrypt any data you wish.
To encrypt a file on Google Drive so it is password protected it is necessary to use a third party app like Innovode Armor. Google implicitly encrypts files to safe guard your files from their infrastructure being hacked into, however this doesn't protect your files from their scrutiny, anyone who hacks into your account, or anyone you inadvertently share files with.
You can encrypt the files/folders with password if the drive doesn't support encryption. Since drives with encryption feature are costly, you can use software to encrypt the files on drives. For example, TrueCrypt, 7 zip, Kakasoft Folder Protector are all good encryption software.

Unless you configure your machine to be publicly accessible - i.e. allow others to connect to it remotely, Google will not see any of your files. If you use a Google service like Google Docs or a Google cloud service to store your Quicken files and do not encrypt them, Google CAN look at them but it's not in their business model to invest the resources to do so.
No, Google Drive is used like any other disk connected to your computer. I save any files that I want to exchange between computers on Google Drive: spreadsheets, PDFs, text files, programs, ZIP files, etc.
