More over it's only good for you anyway ?;^) : Hmm... Are we now to have a minor war on which is better: WPGP or : PGPClip? Dr. Wilson has released the new version of his Windows PGP : front end, and it too is at v1.6. :) : Benefits compared to WPGP: Cheaper registration, no increasing : wait-time for unregistered users, 16 and 32bit versions, and a hideable : main window with almost all commands accessible from the PGPClip icon : in the System Tray (32bit version only). Jeff... I really have to make a comment here. These are different products with different audiences. WPGP has a higher registration fee, yes, but most of the other items aren't really relevant. The current release works with both 16 and 32 bit apps, can be reduced to an almost invisible screen presence, offers full file encryption and works under all operating systems including OS/2. If you prefer PGPClip, by all means use it. If it provides the functionality you need at a lower price, it is a sensible decision, but you really need to compare apples to apples. -- Jack Gostl gostl@argoscomp.com
