Is there a way to use a Group Policy to force folder encryption for a

specific folder on a group of PCs (XP) ?


A local or network folder?

If local then there i am not aware of simple setting for this but you
could write a script which is a machine startup script and enforces the
local directory encryption. You could make that script execute on
specific computers which are filtered via either: WMI, OU or Security
Group during computer startup.
But if your users are local admins then i think they can un-encrypt.
Anything below local Admin does not allow them to overwite.

If network folder than make that folder part of your Offline files
hierarchy and there is a GPO setting to force encryption. 
Again, if they are local admins then they can overwrite.
