I ve also tried:

        foUserAgent.getRendererOptions().put("encryption-params",
                                new PDFEncryptionParams( null, null, true, false, false, false));

but it still says the PDF is password protected.

The samples you provided set the user password, which triggers the  
dialog. The user password can be left blank if you want to avoid this,  
but the sample code you provided leaves the owner password blank and  
sets the user password to "password".

see: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/pdfencryption.html
Under 'Usage (embedded)' you can find the parameter definitions. The  
first parameter is the user password, the second is the owner password.


HTH!
