Curve Encrypt 1.0, IDEA encryption for the Macintosh is now available for ftp from ripem.msu.edu, directory:

pub/crypt/other/curve-encrypt-idea-for-mac

Read the file pub/crypt/GETTING_ACCESS for information on how to get access to the ftp site. I plan to also make CE available through csn.org (Mike, are you listening? Your mail is bouncing).

I think csn.org must have been down for a few minutes when you first tried. In any case, Curve Encrypt 1.0 is now posted at csn.org. Read /mpj/README.MPJ for export restrictions and the name of the hidden directory (that changes periodically). Curve encrypt is in csn.org: /mpj/I_will_not_export/crypto_???????/curve_encrypt

Curve Encrypt is a freeware drag-and-drop encryption application for the Macintosh. It uses IDEA cipher-feedback mode with a 255 character pass phrase, and encrypts both the data and resource forks of files. Source code is provided.
