Dear Sir,
I'm not sure how an encryption product that uses encryption algorithms weaker than Pretty Good Privacy can be described as being better than PGP.
Especially when all the algorithms listed have known problems of one kind, or another. << And yes, I know that the known problems -- in some instances --- are entirely theoretical in nature. >>
What puzzles me is that he included two cyphers that are _extremely_ easy to break, the vignere cypher and the ascii cypher. Why include these? And what is his new permutation of RC4 and DES? Yours Sincerely, Benjamin Grosman
