Okay, I have a question. I've used PGP Freeware forever, but recently
bought McAfee VirusScan Deluxe for almost nothing, and PGP
Personal Privacy 6.5.3 was included.
I went to www.pgp.com and read NAI's PGP ADK Security Advisory there,
which says, "The MIT web site should have a new PGP 6.5.x freeware
release early Friday, and the NAI/PGP web site should have patches out
for the commercial releases at about the same time."
However, I can find no mention of PGP for Personal Privacy on the Web
Product page. And if I go to the generic upgrade section, I'm asked
for "grant number" or a login and password. All I have is VirusScan
serial number.
Does anyone know where I can find an upgrade for PGP for Personal
Privacy? Or is this just PGP Freeware under a different name and with
a couple of additional components? Will upgrading to the freeware
version do the job?
FWIW, I don't feel a lot of urgency to this, since I don't use ADK;
like Deryk, I just always try to stay current. From the press releases
I've read, if my key is compromised, I will have to "acknowledge a
warning dialog that an ADK is associated with the certificate", and
will know not to use it.
