I want it! -----Mensaje original----- De: Alan Tu <ATU5713 at COMPUSERVE.COM> Para: EUPHORIA at LISTSERV.MUOHIO.EDU <EUPHORIA at LISTSERV.MUOHIO.EDU> Fecha: Martes 29 de Diciembre de 1998 2:58 PM Asunto: Kryptonite v2.0 Now Available! 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. Alan 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.
