If you just need something for encryption, look into this thread for PGP (Pretty Good Privacy).

Hello,
I was looking for that program in particular, though I will look at the others and see what I can find there that I can use.

Not sure if this is the right program. It looks like when it was remote hosted they changed the name from Crypt04 to Crypt4.

I don't think that Crypt4 is the same as Crypt04, You can find a description of Crypt04 Here http://www.webgrid.co.uk/security_3.html

I think that would be a good idea.

DOS-Based 'Progress Window' has been made redundant, and will now operate minimised, to reduce clutter. Only visual display presented to user is the GUI software.

Interface and guide are now more user-friendly
Help now uses Microsoft's Compiled Hypertext Markup format to avoid dodgy redistribution.

------------
Do you really need this software version there are many other more fully developed encription programs available.

I found v1.10 buggy & unusable on win98 and v1.20 installed missing the main .exe & other components.

Okay,
Does anyone know of a good, secure, symmetric encryptor?
