from http://www.msnbc.com/news/539158.asp Relevant excerpt:
The FBI was able to decrypt the letter quickly, possibly because
Hanssen allegedly had sent his handlers an earlier letter that included a copy of his encryption key, and it was obtained in a search of his property.
Wonder if he was using PGP and his passphrase was weak? If not, should this be as unsettling as it seems? (assuming that the story as reported is more accurate than not (which may be quite a leap of course)) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
