Thanks, djk!

New version available. There was some incompatibility problem with Win9x, but for now it's fixed.

Absolutely brilliant! The 6.0 version stopped working completely on WinME for me; but the 6.1 version sails

The plugin easily simplifies many security tasks for me; I love it! Will there ever be any other encryption algorithms implemented in it, or will the focus always be AES? I'd love to see an option to switch to Serpent or IDEA. Even 256bit AES would be a nice implimentation.

Keep up the great work!

I have not plan this, maybe in the future...

hmmmmm...

knowing little of international export law as i do.... how does a program like 7zip get away with distributing itself all over the world with 256bit AES encryption? for that matter, there are dozens of programs that use 448bit Blowfish freely available everywhere. surely keysize alone cannot be the determining factor in whether or not software can be exported?

The problem is only my country (Switzerland). They adapted the U.S. crypto export laws when they were the strongest, but didn't change the laws later when the U.S. relaxed their laws. Unfortunately Switzerland doesn't have any software industry, so there is no lobby who would have this law changed...

Good evening !
¤ You can't tell that the Switzerland has not any soft Industry : YOU are the Swiss Software Industry, TC is well known worldwide.

¤ You could petition the Swiss Federal Government or Parliament about this (seriously). Moreover, it's close your's…
- I would sign such a petition twice by both my right and left hands !

2Ghisler :

You can also ally with Eric Fookes, the author of Notetab, since he is also from Switzerland.

Sorry for my late reply.

Yes, this is true, anyway I don't know the answer why this is.
Maybe someone can explain this to us.

Hello !
¤ It's a good idea !
- I warned the Author of Notetab, and also Luzius Schneider who is a Swiss author of softwares and a member of that Forum.

  Kind regards,

How can I create a keyfile which can be used with the AES plugin ?

[Negyedi Vilmos]

You can use any file as keyfile but it must be >2 KB
