Encryption (and decryption too, and even more) is a decently sensitive activity and should be entrusted to dedicated standalone, strong and independent applications. As a brain child/brat, that is a conception, it is simpatico (I myself was warmed to this for a shorter time at the beginning), but using something like that integrated into a program which is constantly in an OTF "fixing" and with running unfinished components with besides so active beta "releases" and "OTF" live testings, is not very mind cuddling idea. - -- Mica PGP keys nestled at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ http://tronogi.tripod.com/pgp/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 670 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, Gentoo & Vector ~ Wine ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my "From|Reply To" field(s). ~~~ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6-svn-4217 <>o<> tiger192 (Cygwin/MinGW32) iQEVAwUBRNo9BrSpHvHEUtv8AQhzbggAgvqtc1lw3H8lFFmW72//6wopojGpZrLD jNOamuanUp44WsMYUgckzpSbQIvAwybUPevPKeTS3jyP725dA9UsmpIxLGHnUoyW hPldtUNTAWBD+a5iGm8a/VlcB/X3KaToBs/4WUG0SeJswY9OaJUkZe1Jte/kB4bn b/nbXTuBKhrTxpvaEsiUocw8kX2QFHRIrC9S/afjYKOrw2iFLsw5y6P1Qrzjo417 VO2RbwqQ7tZbpS0GlDRBuSWL7ylrQbUjj/YD1pkCNMQcZWGBPyWxaw3L8P0+gk5p 65ZBgBddk4rDPUo2xKSUIExlzV8PQPEiiuGzpBf4bfsWkdM3bN1PCA== =PHgI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.80.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
