Program: 'Speak Feely' for "secure comminucations"...
by Jan 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Greetings, I've come across this program on the net which claims to give "secure communications"... could any of you folks comment of this program? Speak Freely 6.1 For Windows 95/NT (295K) Author: John Walker Homepage: http://www.fourmilab.ch/speakfree/windows/ Description: Real time one to one audio chat, half or full duplex, bitmap transfer. Encryption for secure communications. Might be slow with modem connections. The text below is part of the text on the homepage... ======================== Speak Freely for Windows Release 6.1 Speak Freely is a Windows application that allows you to talk (actually send voice, not typed characters) over a network. If your network connection isn't fast enough to support real-time voice data, four forms of compression may allow you, assuming your computer is fast enough, to converse nonetheless. To enable secure communications, encryption with DES, IDEA, and/or a key file is available. If PGP is installed on the user's machine, it can be invoked automatically to exchange IDEA session keys for a given conversation. Speak Freely for Windows is compatible with Speak Freely for Unix, and users of the two programs can intercommunicate. Users can find one another by communicating with a "Look Who's Listening" phone book server. You can designate a bitmap file to be sent to users who connect so they can see who they're talking to. Speak Freely supports Internet RTP protocol, allowing it to communicate with other Internet voice programs which use that protocol; in addition, Speak Freely can also communicate with programs which support the VAT (Visual Audio Tool) protocol. ...

CIA Hires Lo/Hi-Tech Spies
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

NYT, June 27, 1998: Getting Back to Basics, C.I.A. Is Hiring More Spies Taking steps to reduce dependence on high-tech spying. By James Risen Washington, June 26--The Central Intelligence Agency is beginning the largest recruitment drive for new spies in its history, in an ambitious effort to rebuild its espionage service, which has been severely damaged by spy scandals, budget cutbacks and high turnover since the end of the cold war, officials said. With Congress already providing increased financing, the Directorate of Operations, the C.I.A.'s clandestine espionage arm, will hire record numbers of case officers --spies-- beginning this year as part of a new strategic plan to repair the decaying espionage capabilities of the United States by 2005, officials said. In addition to expanded hiring, the agency also plans to reopen several overseas stations that were closed in the early 1990's after the demise of the Soviet Union led Congress and the White House to reduce the C.I.A.'s budget sharply. The recruitment plan is a sign that the C.I.A. recognizes that it has become far too dependent on so-called technical intelligence, or eavesdropping devices and spy satellites. Now, the agency wants to get back to espionage basics, by increasing its ability to place a spy behind enemy lines or inside the offices of a rival government. The spread of new technologies like encryption and computer networks has eroded the value of spy satellites and listening devices and has led the C.I.A. to see the need for an expanded cadre of spies. Without having an agent in place, the C.I.A. has found it much harder to gain access to secrets from rival governments, terrorists and international organized crime groups. ... The C.I.A. is recruiting case officers, and people to support them with technical skills that spies have rarely been asked to learn in the past. "As we tried to figure out our requirements for the future, we realized we needed to have greater technical support for agent operations," said one American official. At the top of the list of requirements is computer expertise. The proliferation of global computer data networks, for example, has made it more difficult for the agency to slip into a country using false identifications. Only computer experts can defeat those local computer systems, and even developing countries routinely make sophisticated computer checks on passports and visas. ... ----- Full story: http://jya.com/cia-hires.htm

ALL YOU DO IS ADVERTISE THIS 800 NUMBER! THAT'S ALL!! $100 goes to you for EVERY sale that the company closes! Does the idea of making at least $1,000 per week beginning your 2nd week of doing business excite you? How about never having to sell a thing to your customer and never having to talk to ANYONE to make money? I don't know how this could get any easier. EVERY aspect of selling or talking to someone is DONE COMPLETELY by the company! The number one home based business for the 2nd year in a row, Fortune 5000 is a member of the Better Business Bureau and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. WHAT THIS BUSINESS WILL DO FOR YOU: * Handles all your calls, closes your sales, and sends you WEEKLY commission checks! * It pays you a $100 commission (that's over 50% of the total sale) for EVERY sale. CHECKS put $$$ in your pocket in less than your first week or two... Quick commission earnings build and maintain motivation.

Dear Friend, DO YOU SUFFER FROM BAD CREDIT? DO YOU WISH YOU COULD START OVER WITH A CLEAN SLATE? Maybe you just want a better way to protect your privacy. Many of us never realized the long-term effect that bad credit has on our lives. In the computer age, many of these negative issues seem inescapable, and for good reason. Fortunately, Credit Medic will rescue you from your past negative credit and open the way to a new life in the credit world. By creating an entirely new credit file, you can obtain the credit you deserve. This powerful program will explain how you can create a new credit bureau file that will give you the opportunity for new credit. People lose their credit privileges for any number of reasons. In our society, it's very difficult to live without good credit. Regardless of your past credit history, this program will show you how to regain good credit. But you will get more than that.

Don't be fooled into thinking that this is a miracle quick fix. This method will require some work on your part.
