Hey all,
I'd like to just point this out. On June 20th Dropbox has a security snafu[1].
Why trust a 3rd party when you could do it yourself? When it comes to
security and privacy there isn't much transparency. Maybe postmortem but not
upfront.

I thinks it's a bad idea.
If exposure of private keys is acceptable, why not just using AES like
methods?
To backup private keys, I think printer is better, and more realiable than
dropbox like cloud storages. The security of dropbox is far from claimed,
don't trust them. see

Thanks. I should have known better to ask before I copied an FTP's link
location from the page. They made it a bit more difficult for me since
they no longer link it directly but as long as the FTP server is still
in existence I should be able to find it.

Six days ago I received my machine from repair. I am now running Windows
7 Ultimate and am ready to get back into the Enigmail scene after
settling in with Firefox and Thunderbird. However, when I navigated to
the download page on GnuPG.org the familiar table was not there. Where

I would recommend upgrading. GnuPG currently comes in two 'flavors': the
1.4.x track, and the 2.0.x track. Speaking very broadly, 1.4.x is better

Depends entirely on the strength of your passphrase. With a strong enough
passphrase you could publish your secret certificates in the newspaper of
your choice and still be confident of their safety.

Many apologies! When I posted my question, I was laboring under some
misinformation provided by the file's originator. The file was apparently
inadvertently truncated before being transferred, but we did not know. When
the originator supplied an un-truncated file, it did successfully decrypt
Hi, all. Please CC me on any replies, as I am not subscribed to the list.
I have GPG installed on a Windows 2003 server (32-bit). Looking in the install
folder, it appears that it is GPG version 1.2.2.
I am having an issue when I try to decrypt a file whose decrypted size is

Hi,
I'm revisiting my gpg card issues to see if someone can help out.
I have now installed GPG4WIN 2.1.0 on a new 32bit Win7 and is having some (and
same) issues like before.
One is "scdeamon.exe" that at intervalls needs to be killed when it starts to
generate incorrect output.

To make a long story short.
I created a key with jenuine pgp 10.
I exported it with IDEA.
I made gpg 1.2.2 work with IDEA.
Making gpg 1.4.11 work with IDEA failed.
I changed my pass-phrase using --crypt-algo CAST5 with 1.2.2.
Now, enigmail works, so I am one ha
Looks like the answer to my question iz: Not legally. I was thinking
that IDEA was more than ten years old, which I thot meant that the
patent on it was expired. Silly me, though, looks like patent law
changed for about seven more years of length. So, while I'm waiting for
six months or whatever, I
