Thumbs up to Eddison's reply - I just did this yesterday, and it works beautifully! For those English speakers, the process is to:
1. Vector -> Geoprocessing -> Buffer, which will create your typical round buffer. 2. Vector -> Research Tools -> Polygon from layer extent - will give you a square. If you have multiple points, you'll want to check the option "calculate extent for each feature separately." Gracias!
