Relying on software or system > adminstrators is folly. ---------- Unless you're doing all your work on a trusted workstation, to which only you have access, encryption isn't enough. The processor on which the work is done has to encrypt and decrypt, meaning that the data has to be floating around in plaintext form at some times. If your software is ignoraably secure, then so is your transitory plaintext. -- scott preece gould/csd - urbana uucp: ihnp4!uiucdcs!ccvaxa!preece arpa: preece@gswd-vms
