Is it cheaper to install an encryption software than an encryption hardware? Will encryption reduce the speed of my pc? A virus uses encryption to hide itself (correct?), but will the files in a pc be safe from virus when encrypted? why? (Correct me if I'm wrong) It is easier to crack (let us say) a 56 bit technique than a 64 bit (correct ?). =============================================================================== You give the words you have spoken, it is not lended and are not taken back. It is like what The Corrs sung "...your forgiven not forgotten...." bbt@mudspring.uplb.edu.ph bbt@peak-two.uplb.edu.ph metaphone@altavista.net
