To this southern boy, it looks like the pinkos are slamming American (whoops, sorry, English) programming... :) "pgp in actual use is not recommended.", oh yeah, well our alphabet has more characters, so there... There were some interesting flaws that they pointed out... Could someone do a follow up and say what has been fixed in PGP version 2.1? If pgp cyphertext/encrypted data is predictable, I wonder how that would affect the "it'd take a Cray a year" figure? (or were the pinkos being overconfident) I actually like the Russians, but I'm just fulfilling my stereotype. peace :* +-------Matt-Willis--------------------------------+ | Matt Willis ASTMWILL@STETSON.BITNET | elsewhere: | Matt Willis Head of the Underground | mwill@mindvox.phantom.com | Matt Willis Robotech PBM List | +-------Matt-Willis--------------------------------+ "Absolutely alone in awareness of the mechanism." -Agrippa by WG
