The one I currently use now is called WinAuth. It meets all my requirements including the ability to password protect the interface and encrypt the database. It also supports YubiKeys which is an added bonus.

I also know of Authy which also meets all my requirements. It has a cool Phishing Detection feature which WinAuth does not. It's available for most popular devices as well. Authy is available as a Chrome extension.

Authy App for Desktop

Authy is a simple way to manage Two-Factor Authentication accounts. Authy supports GMail, Dropbox, Lastpass and thousands of other sites.

    Unfortunately, Authy for desktop isn't offered anymore. There is an addon available for Google Chrome though.
