There's a good example on how to encrypt/decrypt files using vb.net on codeproject.com http://www.codeproject.com/KB/security/EncryptFile.aspx

Well... .NET includes A LOT of security and encryption classes. I would begin your search by looking in the System.Security.Cryptography namespace.
If you need help implementing a specific method from within the options there, let us know.
As a side note, you should be able to handle all of your file access from the System.IO namespace. Try to stay away from the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace as a lot of the stuff in there is no longer best practice.
-edit: Typo.
