I'd like to password protect a spreadsheet when the user opens the file.
I know you can "protect" the worksheet, but i'd like to have a Window
or something popup asking for the password before the file actually
opens up...

Can this be done?

Of course this can be done. In the save file window (Excel2002), go to
Tools/General Options... and there you can set a password for Read-Only
or to avoid people opening your file. You can use "Save as" and save the
file with the same name if you don't want to change the name of the file.
If someone really wants or needs to open the file, he can always find
3rd-party software to break this passwords, so it's not as safe as it
might look.
