In ArcGis 10 you can use the Clip (data management) tool to do what you ask for. In the input options, you can specify the clipping_geometry option to clip the input raster to a polygon.

thank you. with checking "Use Input Features for Clipping Geometry(optional)" solves the problem... and Spatial Analyst Tools > Extraction > Extract by Mask option is another alternative.... – Aragon Mar 13 '12 at 16:01
