Good luck on ZipStream. I've been unable to get emails replied to for many 
months, and their website's up but unchanged since last August. The last 
info posted was that they were porting everything to NT.

A ZipStream demo is on the Warp 4 Apps CD, right? But it's their 
CryptStream (I assume that's the same thing as ZipStream Secure but without
the compression, but who knows?) which intrigues me. It installs a File 
System (IFS) driver that puts a crypto key between bootup (I think) and 
uncrypted access to *any* files, and can be run with or without compression
(who needs it these days?) When I tested the ZipStream demo it didn't slow 
the system down a whit, and I really like the idea that if the local 
prosecutors get a search warrant to confiscate my hardware even the FBI 
Crime Lab (who's stains were on the front of J. Edgar Hoover's dress, I 
want to know) couldn't see what's there. I think.

Anybody comes back alive from this company, I'd like to know.

Good luck,

Buddy
