A totally free, solid encryption program is now available.  Some ways it is
better than home-grown encryption programs is:

* It uses a proven algorithm: Blowfish.
* It uses a hash algorithm to detect tampered files and avoids bad
decrypts.

This program is in a .ZIP file, and contains program, documentation, and
credits.  E-mail me if you want it.  That goes for _anyone_.  However, I
would like to thank Davi T. Figueiredo for contributing to this program.
Without him, this program would be impossible since he created both the
Blowfish algorithm and the hash algorithm from specifications.  There is a
reason why I am not submitting this to the website.  This is an excerpt of
the documentation.  Let's just say I believe in very civil, very
non-violent disobedience.

Legal Notice

The US government forbids exporting of this program.  The author
believes, however, that information security is not a weapon, and
that everyone is entitled to have strong information security.
Therefore, as long as the author has an e-mail address, this
package will be available to _anyone_ who wants it.

However, _use_ of this package is not restricted in the United
States, nor in most places.  But it is restricted in some places.
Use it at your own risk.
