Visual voicemail password protect?

Hey, did a search but couldn't find the answer. It's my first phone with visual voicemail and I'd like to password protect it from prying eyes.

As it's set up now, if I click the icon for my voicemail, it just opens up and shows all the voicemails, easy to see who called and just as easy to listen.

Is there a way to password protect it, so it won't open the app until after I key in a password (like the standard voicemail)?

Thanks to any who reply.

Not that I have ever heard of. If you want privacy dont use visual voicemail or lock your phone alltogether

Re: Visual voicemail password protect?

Get an app called "app protector" from the market. there's a free one called protector, but I like app protector. You can assign a password for ANY app on your phone. I use the pattern lock capability.
