No horror stories of bestcrypt, but I hear that PGPdisk is damn dope, except for two things. The crypto 'file/partition/whatever' is static in size, not dynamic, and it does _not_ use your pgp key.. But it looks like it should still be neat..

Great, so I finally get around to checking PGP's betaweb, and to my amazement, they finally have a beta version of PGPdisk for 95. Too bad it claims that I need to contact a sales rep, and when I follow their link, I get nothing that would really point me in the right direction. Any of you manage to get your hands on a copy?
Currently, I am using bestcrypt NP with blowfish. I am a little concerned with this however, As I have never seen a crypto-review of the software, and their website is not too forthcoming with technical details, or known attacks. Does anyone have information (or horror stories) from using bestcrypt?
