      PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build08 - Read me file - 05/02/2002
 -----------------------------------------------------------

 1) Added the tiger 192 hash algorithm.
 2) Updated the SHA2 hash algorithm.
 3) Fixes to enable support for large clipboard where the
    contents has no end of line characters.
 4) Fixes to enable handling of detached signatures
    where the contents of the detached signature file contains
    leading non PGP blocks data.
 5) Verification blocks for encrypted only messages.
 6) Cipher display in the verification block.
 7) there are three distinct verification block header/footer
    as follows:-
    BEGIN/END PGP DECRYPTED/VERIFIED MESSAGE (encrypted/signed)
    BEGIN/END PGP DECRYPTED MESSAGE (encrypted only)
    BEGIN/END PGP VERIFIED MESSAGE (signed only)
 8) Omit version line feature, this may be accessed by entering
    a NULL string in the "Version String Preference" combo in
    the "Email" tab of the PGP preferences dialog.
 9) Enabled editing in the password dialogs, this may be toggled
    by ticking "Allow Cut & Paste" tick box in the password dialogs.
    I am not too fond of this feature, however, it's there
    if that is what you want to do.
10) Updated key servers.
11) The system fixed font is now used for display of the
    decrypted/verified message in the PGP text viewer.
12) Fix for PGP 7.x generated RSA v4 keys which used
    v3 format checksums.
13) Changed the order of default preferred ciphers
    as follows:-
	AES256, Twofish256, AES192, 3DES, AES128, CAST5,
	IDEA, BLOWFISH.
14) Numerous typo and other misceleneous fixes.
15) Compiled with the July 2000 MS SDK so that the
    build will run on the windows 95 OS.
16) The Bat plugin is now bundled with this build.
    Make sure you are running the Bat v1.6d or better.
    A Note about The Bat PGP plugin of this build:-
    When the PGP plugin is invoked, the followings is done:
    a) PGPlog will be used to give immediate feedback to the
       user about the status of the decrypted/verified message.
    b) the verification block(s) will be dumped to the clipboard,
       with the processed message(s) block(s) replaced by "<snip>",
       for more detailed analysis.
    c) If the plugin is called via "OpenPGP Decrypt", the
       processed message(s) and verification blocks are
       passed to The Bat.
17) Fixes to the installer.

If you have build 07 installed, run "uninstall.exe" which should
be in your PGP install directory to un-install it.
"Add/Remove Program" may or may not work, this has now
been fixed.

Best Regards and happy encrypting

 PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build07(Updated) - Read me file - 03/17/2002
 -----------------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.8ckt Build07 binary distribution.
The source code corresponding to this build may
be downloaded separately from http://www.ipgpp.com/

What's New:

 1) Fixes to the PGPdisk driver so that PGP disk
    volumes will appear in the windows XP explorer.
 2) Fixes to the PGPdisk driver so that PGP disk
    volumes may be formatted in the windows XP
    environment.
 3) Fixes to the MS Outlook PGP plugin so that
    the decrypt button will work with Outlook
    2000 and Outlook XP.
 4) Graceful OpenPGP MDC packets handling.
 5) Nuking of proprietary packets generated by non
    compliant OpenPGP implementations.
 6) Handling of signature verification where the
    signing key is a sub-key.
 7) Handling of decryption of messages where the
    decryption sub-key is revoked or expired.
 8) Fixes to the Keygen Wizard so that RSA v3 keys
    will be properly generated with IDEA as the default
    cipher.
 9) Warning in Keygen Wizard removed when generating
    RSA v4 keys.
10) Warning removed when exiting PGPtray.
11) Additional hashes support contributed by Disastry:-
    SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512.
12) Preferred hash algorithm is now based on public
    key algorithm.  These may be set in the "Preferred
    Hashing algorithm" combos in the Advanced tab of
    the PGP preferences dialog.  Many thanks to Disastry
    for this valuable feature.
13) "Change Key Preferences" of v4 keys, namely change
    the expiry date and/or the preferred ciphers of
    an existing v4 key.  This feature may be accessed
    by clicking on the "Change Key Preferences..." button
    in the Key properties dialog.  This feature was also
    contributed by Disastry.
14) Display of un-implemented hash algorithm by name instead
    of by algorithm ID, in PGPKeys and the verification blocks.
    The program is currently aware of the following un-implemented
    hash algorithms: TIGER192, HAVAL-5-160, and HAVAL-5-256.
15) NAI's "PGPsdk Key Validity Vulnerability" patch applied
    (Hotfix0904 http://www.pgp.com/downloads/pgpsdk-patch-download.asp).
16) Compiled with Intel RNG support.  The program will use the Intel
    RNG if the Intel Security Driver is installed.  If you have
    an Intel chipset based motherboard with an Intel firmware hub
    (usually an 810 class or better Intel chipset) then you may
    download the Intel Security Driver from here:-
    http://www.intel.com/design/software/drivers/platform/security.htm
    After installing the above, this build of PGP will use
    the Firmware Hub's hardware Random Number Generator.
17) Ported the installer/un-installer to the InstallShield 6.31
    platform, this should provide more reliability.  The installer
    will attempt to perform an un-install if it detects an existing
    PGP 6.5.x installation, it will then proceed to install this build.
    It is strongly recommended that the user re-boots to complete
    the installation.  Should the installer detect some version
    of PGP other than 6.5.x installed, it will not proceed.  In this case
    please follow the installation procedure below.  The installer is
    now language aware, I hope.
18) Other minor fixes, and miscellaneous cosmetic changes.
19) Updated the deflate modules to use zlib 1.1.4 instead of zlib 1.1.3.
20) Compiled using MS SDK November 2001, Numega DriverStudio 2.6.

Please do not install the Outlook Express plugin on a windows 2k/XP
box, as this is known to cause random crashes of the system.

For proper installation please apply the following instructions carefully:-
 1) Un-install whatever build of PGP you have.
 2) Re-boot.
 3) Using Regedit navigate to this key:

    For Windows 9x/Me machines:-  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\KnownDLLs]

    For Windows NT/2K/XP machines:-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\KnownDLLs]

 4) Should you find any values pertaining to PGP under the above key
    please delete them, otherwise proceeds to step 6.
 5) Re-boot.
 6) Delete, if any, PGP*.* in your windows or windows system directory.
 7) Install Build 07.
 8) Re-boot.
    
This build is by no means complete, it is released with the
hope that users will provide the necessary feedback so as
to enable me to better resolve any issues in subsequent builds.
Should you find any problems which are build specific, or should
you have any requests or recommendations, please do not hesitate
to contact me matic@cyberia.net.lb

Best Regards,

And Happy Encrypting,

     PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build06 - Read me file - 06/04/2001
 ----------------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.8ckt Build06 binary distribution.

What's New:

 1) To make the distribution as light as possible the source code
    archive is no longer bundled.   The source code archive
    may be downloaded separately from my site.
    Also, I have omitted the visual studio redistributable files. 
    If you are running an older win9x or win nt system, you may download
    these from:-
    http://download.microsoft.com/download/vc60pro/Update/1/
    W9XNT4/EN-US/VC6RedistSetup_enu.exe
    (please concat the above two lines to obtain the full URL).

 2) V4 signature verification support.

 3) Allows the user to specify the public key algorithm when
    generating sub-keys.

 4) Sort by key type in PGPKeys.

 5) Hash algorithm display for certificates in the tree display and key
    property.

 6) Correct public key algorithms display in the tree and key property
    dialog for v4 RSA keys.

 7) Hash algorithm display in the PGP verification block.

 8) Key ID and lock algorithm display in the sub keys list.

 9) Verification block string in the verification block.
    This may be accessed from the "Verification Block String (VBS)
    Preferences" group of controls in the email tab of the PGP
    preferences.  The verification block string will prefix all
    verification block lines. You have a choice, of custom, verification
    date/time, random, or none.  The default is verification date/time.

10) "Remove Non PGP Block Data" check box in the Email tab of
    the PGP preferences dialog.   What this does is remove all data
    which were not within a PGP block when displaying a verfied/decrypted
    message.  This (9) & 10)) is to prevent attacks based on composite
    messages containing make believe PGP verification blocks designed
    to mislead the user.

11) Better user control over the symmetric algorithm preferences.
    These may be set to your liking using the "Symmetric Algorithm
    Preferences" group of controls in the advanced tab of the PGP
    preferences dialog.

12) Support for ElGamal Sign/Encrypt keys, this is to make PGP more
    compatible with GnuPG.

13) Better control over the Preferred Hashing algorithm (Advanced tab, pgp
    preferences dialog).  Setting this option to default will result in the
    following:-
      RSA keys -> MD5 will be used
      DSS or Elgamal Sign/Encrypt -> SHA1 will be used.
    If it is set to MD5 and the key is DSS then SHA1 will be used.  The
    program is able to verify a DSS signed message where MD5 was used,
    however will not allow you to use MD5 with a DSS key. This should
    make PGP more compatible with GnuPG.

14) I have widened the hotkeys fields in the hotkeys tabs of the
    PGP preferences dialog, as it overflowed in certain languages
    e.g. with German systems "Strg+Umschalt+D" will make
    the fields overflow.

15) Samopal Corporation's PGP ICQ plugin is bundled with this build.
    To install it select "Samopal PGP ICQ Plugin", this will be
    installed in your ICQ directory.  You may need to copy your
    Keyrings to the ICQ directory so that the plugin may use them.
    The source code for the PGP ICQ plugin may be obtained from:-
    http://www.samopal.com/soft/pgpicq/
    Many thanks to Samopal Corporation!

16) Trust and Validity display for signatures in PGPKeys.
    

Should there be any problems which are build specific,
please do not hesitate to contact me (matic@cyberia.net.lb).

As always,

Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build05 - Read me file - 04/20/2001
 ----------------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.8ckt Build05 binary distribution,
which also contains the source code distribution.

 What's New:

 1) Twofish / AES hashing fixes (by Stefan Keller).
 2) Enabled subkey generation > 4096 in the subkey creation dialog.
 3) Fixes for Klima & Rosa style attacks on DSA Keys.
 4) Fixed a bug in the PGP explorer context menu, which cause
    the wipe dialog to appear when "encrypt & sign" is selected
    for ".asc" & ".pgp" files.
 5) Fixes for the so called "ASCII Armor Parser Vulnerability",
    http://www.atstake.com/research/advisories/2001/a040901-1.txt
    Please note that the above is not a PGP problem, it's
    a windows problem, and is not limited to ASCII armored
    files.
    The PGP dll's are now protected via the KnownDLLs registry entries.
    Also the user is prompted for the location where he wishes
    to save the decoded file should the program detect an encoded
    .dll file.
 6) There are now two PGPmemlock and PGPdisk drivers for windows NT/2K,
    One is compiled with the windows 2000 DDK, and the other is
    compiled with the NT 4 DDK.  The OS specific one will be selected
    by the installer.
    
Fixes and enhancements by Disastry:-

 7) Splitting 3DES, AES192, AES256, Twofish key now works properly.
 8) When creating a key the preferred cipher is used to encrypt it
    (before CAST5 was always used).
 9) Display of all preferred ciphers in key properties.
10) Displays cipher used to protect private key in key properties
11) Key sort by 4 byte Key ID's in PGPKeys.
12) Allows different passphrase for subkeys.
13) Allows ascii armor when signing clipboard.
    This may be accessed from the "armored output"
    check box in the "Enter Passphrase" dialog.
14) Support for RSA v4 keys.  This is still work
    in progress, it was enabled so as to
    allow more users to evaluate this feature,
    and report any problems.

Should there be any problems which are build specific,
please do not hesitate to contact me (matic@cyberia.net.lb).

As always,

Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build04 - Read me file - 02/23/2001
 ----------------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.8ckt Build04 binary distribution,
which also contains the source code distribution.

 What's New:

1) Further refined the 64 bits key ID display.  The signing
   key ID in the verification block will be displayed
   according to the user's preferred setting in the "64 bits
   Key ID Display" check box in the advanced tab of the PGP
   preferences dialog.  As it seems that this feature has
   created a lot of confusion.
   However, I recommend and encourage users to refer to PGP
   Key ID's as 64 bits entities because this is how they are
   handled internally by the program.  Let's put it this
   way, it is not that hard to spoof a PGP Key ID to 32 bits
   of precision, however it is very hard to spoof the
   PGP Key ID to 64 bits of precision.
   A discussion of PGP Key ID's is beyond the scope of this
   read me file.
   If Sam or Tom are reading this, then I take this
   opportunity to suggest that they both add a section in
   their respective PGP FAQ's about PGP Key ID's :-)
  
2) Updated the links in the about box and added some more.

3) Updated the preset version strings.

I have acquired a new domain name http://www.ipgpp.com.
And will be moving to a new host soon.  Please update your
book mark.

As always,

Enjoy!

 What's New:

 1) Added Key properties display to the matching key
    found pop up dialog.

 2) Fixed the "Allowed Algorithms"'s check boxes
    in the advanced tabs of the PGP preferences
    dialog.  As some of them could not be un-checked.

 3) Fixed the mnemonics in the advanced tabs of the PGP
    preferences dialog.

 4) Fixed the tab order in the advanced tabs of the PGP
    preferences dialog.

 PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build03 - Read me file - 02/12/2001
 --------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.8ckt Build03 binary distribution,
which also contains the source code distribution.

 What's New:
 -----------

1) This build incorporates Disastry's modifications
   to support more ciphers.

   Many thanks to Disastry, for sharing this with us.

   Currently, the following additional ciphers are
   supported:-
     a) Blowfish-128.
     b) Twofish-256.
     c) AES-128.
     d) AES-192.
     e) AES-256.

   I do not encourage the use of Blowfish, as it is
   not implemented in any of the official PGP builds.
   It is provided so as to make PGP more compatible
   with GPG.

   Whether you intend to use those additional ciphers
   or not, should you come across a key using any
   one of those ciphers, you will be equipped to
   handle them.

2) Added the ability to display the creation and
   expiration dates of a key in long date/time
   format i.e. the time is also displayed.
   This feature may be toggled via the
   "Long Date Display" check box, in the advanced
   tab of the PGP preferences dialog.
   Checking it will display the creation or
   expiration time of the key, in addition to the date.
   In it unchecked state the creation and expiration
   will be displayed in the traditional format
   i.e. date only.

3) Fine tuned the 64 bits Key ID display feature.
   The Key ID will now be displayed in your preferred
   display format.
   i.e. As per your selection via the "64 bits
   Key ID Display" check box, in the advanced tab
   of the PGP preferences dialog.
   In it's unchecked state the key ID's will be displayed
   in the traditional 32 bits format, otherwise,
   the full 64 bits format will be used.
   Note that the Key ID's in the signing key selection
   Combo and the verification blocks will be displayed
   in 64 bits format regardless of your preferred
   Key ID display setting.

Finally I hope that you will enjoy this build, as much
as I had enjoyed putting it together.
I also hope, that you will find it useful, and
that it will encourage you to use PGP on a more regular
basis.

Should there be any problems which are specific
to this build, please do not hesitate to contact
me (matic@cyberia.net.lb).


Enjoy!

and Happy Encrypting,

 What's New:
 -----------

1) In Build01 I forgot to add the column header in
   the Key ID 64 column of PGPKeys.  This has now
   been fixed.

2) Added the ability to toggle whether one wishes
   to block ADK requests or not.  This feature
   may be accessed from the advanced tab of the
   PGP preferences dialog by checking or un-checking
   the "Block ADK requests" check box.

3) The user may now select whether he wishes the
   Key ID to be display in 64 bits format, or the
   traditional 32 bits format, in the key property
   sheets and tree display of PGPKeys.
   The preferred Key ID display may be set thru
   the "64 Bits Key ID Display" check box, in the
   advanced tab of the PGP Preference Dialog.

Finally, please note that the Adobe Acrobat
PGP documentations have been omitted from this
distribution to make it as light as is possible.

However, I strongly recommend that you peruse them.

They may be downloaded from:

http://irfaiad.virtualave.net

The name of the item to download is PGP 6.5.1 .pdf
documentations.


As always,

Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.8ckt - Build01 - Read me file - 09/22/2000
 --------------------------------------------------


This is the 6.5.8ckt Build01 binary distribution.

Well you asked for it, and we bought it to you.

There isn't much to add, it's really PGP 6.5.1ckt
Build08.  As 6.5.1 and 6.5.8 are more or less the
same.

I have not included the Lotus Notes, and groupwise
plugins.  I figured that if you really need them
then chances are that you should buy the
commercial release from NAI.

 What's New
 ----------

Ported all the ckt goodies to PGP 6.5.8.

Cleaned up the shell extension context menu mod,
it needed it.

Without boring you too much, I have attached the
read me file of 6.5.1ck Build07.

Should there be any problems which are specific
to this build, please do not hesitate to contact
me (matic@cyberia.net.lb).



Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build07 - Read me file - 09/20/2000
 --------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.1ckt Build07 binary distribution.

 What's New:-
 ------------

1) Fixed the ADK bug.  The program will no longer
   honor any ADK's be they legitimate or otherwise.
   Should you have a need for the ADK feature I
   suggest that you purchase the commercial
   release from NAI.

2) Fixed this typo in the verification block:-
   *** Singer Key Fingerprint: 75CD 96A7 8ABB F87E  9390 5FD7 2A88 4F45
   changed Singer to Signer

3) In build 06, the PGPMemlock driver was linked by accident
   using the 2k DDK, this caused the driver to fail
   to load under the windows NT platform.  This problem has
   been fixed.

4) The source code archive which is bundled with this
   distribution has been updated to reflect the changes
   made up to Build 07.  You will find the archive
   in the same directory where PGP was installed, it's
   the file pgp651ckt07.zip.

As always,

Should you have any problems or suggestions which are
specific to this build, please do not hesitate
to email me (matic@cyberia.net.lb).

Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build06 - Read me file - 05/27/2000
 --------------------------------------------------

This is the 6.5.1ckt Build06 binary distribution.

Please note that this is an updated binary distribution
of Build05.  So, there is no need to move to this build
unless you are affected by the issues which were fixed.

 What's new:-
 ------------

The PGPNet SetAdapter executable was not included
in the installer in the earlier distribution. This update
corrects this.

The windows 9x PGPdisk driver was recompiled using
the latest release of DriverStudio 2.0b1, namely NuMega
VtoolsD 3.05.

The PGP command line was not statically linked in build 05.
This problem has been corrected, the new compiled binary
no longer imports from any of the PGP SDK dll's.

Fixed some win2k issues in the PGPDisk windows NT driver.

Fixed a typo in the verification block strings.  Also,
revised the verification block strings to be more consistent.

This is the new verification block:-

*** PGP Signature Status: good
*** Signer: Imad R. Faiad <matic@cyberia.net.lb>
*** Signer Key ID: 0xBCC31718833F1BAD
*** Singer Key Fingerprint: 75CD 96A7 8ABB F87E  9390 5FD7 2A88 4F45
*** Signed: 5/27/2000 12:13:59 PM
*** Verified: 5/27/2000 12:14:41 PM
*** BEGIN PGP VERIFIED MESSAGE ***

This was the old one:-

*** PGP Signature Status: good
*** Signer: Imad R. Faiad <matic@cyberia.net.lb>
*** Signing Key ID: 0xBCC31718833F1BAD
*** Singing Key Fingerprint: 75CD 96A7 8ABB F87E  9390 5FD7 2A88 4F45
*** Signed: 2/5/2000 8:33:44 PM
*** Verified: 2/5/2000 8:33:49 PM
*** BEGIN PGP VERIFIED MESSAGE ***

Note the typo "Singing Key Fingerprint" which was fixed.
Also note the change from "Signing Key" to "Signer Key".

For the record, the MS platform SDK, April 2000 was
used to compile this build.

Should there be any problems which are specific to this
build, please do not hesitate to contact me:-
matic@cyberia.net.lb.

 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build05 - Read me file - 02/05/2000
 --------------------------------------------------

This is build 05 in the 6.5.1ckt series.  It is based
on the PGP 6.5.1 source code books which were scanned
by pgpi.com.

For the complete list of the changes which were made
to the plain vanilla 6.5.1i source code please refer
to this read me file as well as all those of the
previous builds in the 6.5.1ckt series which are
appended to this document.

Or better still:-

All the modifications are documented in the source code.

This binary distribution also contains the source code
archive used for this build.  It will be automatically
copied to the same directory where you installed this
build by the PGP installer.  In this build the source
code archive is in the file pgp651ckt05s.zip.

Please note that the source code only distribution for
this build is also available at my site:-

http://www.ipgpp.com/

I have been informed that in a certain foreign usenet
newsgroup it has been purported (Anonymously of course)
that the ckt source code are never released.
I do find this a bit puzzling as we have always made our
source code available as soon as the source code tree
has become stable.  But then again that particular
newsgroup is rife with rumors.  And often times, I am
told, the rumors are apparantly dispelled by their
propagators (under another alias of course)!

I hereby certify that I have never found any backdoors
in any version of PGP.  I have been hacking the source
code of PGP since PGP 5.0.  In the process, I never
found any piece of code which is questionable.  If there
were any backdoors I am sure they would have been discovered
by now.  So, to the rumor mill camp, I have this to say:-

What is your agenda?

Changes in this Build:-

 1)  I have moved to the pgpi.com source code.
     The previous builds used the source code which
     was downloaded from the zedz.com ftp site (the only one
     available at that time).
     The proofread pgpi.com source code was released in late
     November 1999.
     The source code distributed by pgpi.com is a better
     baseline in my view.
     Of course all the modifications which were carried
     out in the previous builds were successfully ported
     to the new baseline code.

 2)  I have enhanced the PGP verifiction block.  It now
     shows the singing key ID in it's full 64 bits, the
     signing key fingerprint is also shown.
     The following is a sample verification block, which
     I do hope will be self explanatory:-

*** PGP Signature Status: good
*** Signer: Imad R. Faiad <matic@cyberia.net.lb>
*** Signing Key ID: 0xBCC31718833F1BAD
*** Singing Key Fingerprint: 75CD 96A7 8ABB F87E  9390 5FD7 2A88 4F45
*** Signed: 2/5/2000 8:33:44 PM
*** Verified: 2/5/2000 8:33:49 PM
*** BEGIN PGP VERIFIED MESSAGE ***

This is a test message to demo the new improved verifiction block.
New Improved! LOL


*** END PGP VERIFIED MESSAGE ***

 3)  Most of the key ID's in the program are now displayed
     in 64 bits format.  They are too numerous to mention
     individually, but should be obvious to users of any
     build in the 6.5.x series. e.g. look at the
     signing key id in the comment block of this message.

 4)  Recompiled PGPDisk using DriverStudio 1.5 RC1.

For installation instruction please refer to the read me file
of build 04 below.

Should there be any problems which are specific to this build
please do not hesitate to contact me.

I have built this version for my own personal use. I can
state that as far as I am aware, there are no back-doors
in this build, that the program (PGP) can generate and use
RSA keys up to 16384 bits in length, DH keys up to 8192 bits
in length, will handle DSA keys up to 2048 bits in length,
and that the integrity of the program has not been
compromised by my modifications.

Please note, that this is not a "Warezed" version of PGP.
And I, the compiler of the source code, hereby declare
that I do not own or claim ownership of the binaries so
produced.  It is being made available "Gratis" to facilitate
the process of satisfying the PGP users community that the
current commercial release of PGP is still secure and
trustworthy.  Therefore, it is my fervent hope, that all
users of this package observe all applicable laws with
regards to copyrights, patents, and other laws that may
govern its use.

I appeal to all users of this build to buy the commercial
product from NAI.  It's only $15.  As PGP users we owe it
ourselves to make sure that a good product such as PGP does
not get discontinued because it is not profitable for it
makers.  Furthermore, by actively supporting the PGP team
you will ensure that PGP will evolve to meet your future
security needs.  $15 or even a lot more is not that much
to pay to protect your privacy.

As always,

Enjoy!

 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build04 - Read me file - 01/05/2000
 --------------------------------------------------

Happy new millenium!

 What's New:-

 1) Added a column to PGPKeys which displays the Key ID in 64
    bits.  This feature may be accessed from "Views"|"Key ID 64 bits"
    menu in PGPKeys.

 2) Fixed a bug in the CBT hook proc which caused the
    "Current Window" feature not to work in the windows 2000
    environment.

 3) Fixed a bug in the installer which prevented it from automatically
    finding the Outlook Express install directory in the windows
    2000 environment.

 4) The installer will no longer install this build if it finds that
    another build of PGP is already installed.  It is better to
    un-install manually, re-boot, clean up the shared dll files
    in order to insure that a clean install of this build is
    performed.  Please refer to the installation procedure bellow.

 5) Recompiled everything using the latest MS Platform SDK (January 2000)
    and Numega DriverWorks.

 6) Updated the icons in the list control of the Enter Passphrase
    dialog to PGP 6.x.x style icons.  In the builds prior to this we were
    still using PGP 5.x.x icons.  Check it out it's neat.

 7) Since the last build, I have migrated to the Windows 2000 platform.
    I can therefore state that this build works like a charm under the
    above platform (Win 2k Build: 2128).

Known Issues:-

The Auto-Unmount after feature is grayed out in win2k.  Also there has
been reports that it does not work on other windows platforms too.
Looking at the source code, this feature is classified as a PGP 7.0
feature in the PGP preferences.  I am not sure whether this is build
specific or not.

Off to Build 05,

Best regards

Imad R. Faiad

              -------------------------------
              IMPORTANT - BEFORE YOU INSTALL:

 ------------------------------------------------
 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build03 - Read me file - 11/27/99
 ------------------------------------------------

 1) Ported the key ring backup feature.
    That is, the user may select the number of backup key rings to be
    maintained by the program. This may be set by the user from the
    "Preferred Number of Key Rings Backups" combo box in the "Files" tab
    of the PGP preferences dialog. You may chose to maintain from One to
    Four key rings backup sets, however, I urge all users to set it to the
    default Four, so that in case of key rings corruption one may always
    roll back to a previous key rings backup set. So, you assess the risk,
    and cautiously set this feature accordingly.

 2) Expanded the web links in the about dialog.  There are some very useful
    PGP links there, so check them out.

 3) Recompiled PGPDisk with the latest version of DriverStudio, V1.5b1.

 4) I have added support for the SHA-Double hash algorithm. The Program
    will successfully decode / verify a PGP message where the SHA-Double
    hash algorithm is used. However, this algorithm may not be selected by
    the user, it is invoked by the program when signing with a 
    DSA key > 1024 bits.  As a bye product of this, DSA keys up to 2048 
    bits are now supported, however they may not be generated.

    Please be aware that the use of the SHA-Double hash algorithm is
    deprecated and should be avoided for three reasons:-

    * It offers no added security over the other provided hash algorithms.

    * It causes inter-operability problems with other implementations of
      PGP. (PGP 5.x.x is the only official build of PGP that I am aware of
      that supports the SHA1x hash algorithm).

    * It may not be possible to implement in future versions of PGP.

 5) Cleaned the preset version strings, added a couple more.

 6) Ported the preferred hash algorithm feature. The user may select his
    preferred hash algorithm. The selected hash algorithm will thereafter
    be used whenever signing with an RSA key. The user may set this feature
    via the "Preferred Hash Algorithm" combo box in the "Advanced" tab of 
    the PGP preferences dialog.

    Please note that the default hash algorithm when signing with an RSA
    key is MD5. However, in addition to the default, this build gives you
    a choice of the SHA1 and the RIPEMD-160 hash algorithms.

    A note to QDPGP users:-
    The program will honor QDPGP hash algorithm settings when the selected
    hash algorithm (in QDPGP) is other than the default MD5. If you wish to
    sign a message from within QDPGP using the default MD5 hash algorithm,
    please make sure that your PGP Preferred Hash Algorithm is also set to
    MD5.

 7) Ported the Key ID column in PGPlog feature. It is based on the PGP
    5.5.3 PGPLog patch, I must therefore give credit to Lincoln Yeoh and
    the anonymous poster of a message in alt.security.PGP, for this handy
    enhancement to PGPlog.

 8) Ported the key ID in signing key dialogs features.
    It is now wider and the combo box shows the user ID, full key size
    information including the DS key size, and the key ID. Many Thanks to
    Mr. Michael Ray for proposing this change in PGP 5.5.3ckt.

 9) The key size wizard dialog has been recoded. It now displays PRZ's
    message in the top part. The bottom part has a combo box containing all
    the supported key sizes in .5k bits increment, and an edit box for
    custom key sizes. The range of the supported key sizes is correctly
    displayed in the custom key size radio button's caption. Also, the key
    sizes which may cause incompatibilities with other PGP versions are
    clearly marked with an "*" in the key size selection combo box.

10) This build also implement the enhancements to the decrypt dialog as
    originally suggested by the anonymous poster. This makes the decrypt
    dialog box more user friendly and informative.


    * It shows the full user ID in the first column, the key size in the
      second, and the key ID in the third.

    * It displays the key ID of any unknown private keys. The user ID will
      be reported as "Unknown Private Key" and the size will be reported
      as "???"

    * It places a key pair icon to the left of the user ID. This will show
      whether the key is RSA or DH and whether it's active, expired,
      revoked, or not on your secring file. Unknown keys will display a
      question mark icon.

    Please note that double clicking on an unknown key in the above dialog
    will cause the program to attempt to get that key from the default key
    server.

    Please also note that for both of the above enhancement the Key ID will
    be reported correctly in these two instances:-

    * if the key is an RSA key or
    * if the key is DH/DSA and is in your key ring.

    That is, if the key is a DH/DSA key, and it is not in your keyring the
    Key ID of the DSA key will be reported instead of the DH key ID.

11) Enabled support (handling and generation) for RSA keys up to 16k bits
    in length.

12) Enabled support (handling and generation) for DH keys up to 8k bits in
    length.

 How to Install?

1) Implemented the explorer context menu feature.
   That is, the full compliment of the PGP sub-menu items
   are shown regardless of the file type.

2) Changed the column layout in PGPKeys so that the Key ID will display
   in the default view next to the key name.

3) I have added the Key ID column to the key selection dialog. The key ID
   column is sortable. To sort on the Key ID simply click on the column
   heading. This should make the selection of recipient keys much easier.

4) Updated the mfc dll files.

5) PGPNet has been re-compiled the way it should.  The compile in build01
   was somehow hacked.

6) Modified the InstallShield script, so that install is allowed under
   win2k.

7) Re-compiled PGPDisk using the latest version of DriverStudio v1.01,
   namely VtoolsD 3.01 and Driverworks v2.2.

   For the record, the previous build was compiled using VtoolsD 2.04 (bug
   heaven), and Driverworks 1.20.

   So, to sum up, expect some improvements in PGPDisk, as many bugs were
   ironed out in the latest releases of both VtoolsD and Driverworks.

As always, should there be any problems please do not hesitate to contact
me.

Off to Build03

 PGP 6.5.1ckt - Build01 - Read me file - 10/13/99
 ------------------------------------------------

Finally the first build in the 6.5.1 series.

The source code was obtained from the replay.com ftp site.

Unlike previous ckt builds, this one was compiled with the
Desktop Security flags set.  This, I am told will enable the
industrial strength PGPNet to be compiled.  For the record
this build does not use BSAFE for RSA operations, it uses
the PGP Inc's home brewed libraries for that purpose.

It contains PGP 6.5.1 GUI, PGP 6.5.1 CLI, PGPDisk, and PGPNet.

I have omitted the mfc dll files and the .pdf files to make
the installer as light as possible.

Please do not select "User's Manual" in the installer, as this
will copy empty files with the same name as the real documentation
files.

The following ckt features have been ported so far:-

1) Enabled support (generation and use) for RSA keys up to 8k
   bits in length.

2) Web Links in the About Dialog.

3) User selectable / defined version strings.

4) Append signing Key ID to comment block.

5) Append signing Key Fingerprint to comment block.

I have not tested PGPNet, nor do I intend to ever test it.  If you
install it, and have some problems which are build specific, please
let me know so that this may be fixed.

This is a private build, and is not intended for general distribution.
Therefore, I would appreciate if this is never re-distributed.
Not that I do not want it to be propagated, but because the good folks
at NAI do not appreciate the ckt builds!

I hope you will enjoy this build, there is more to come of course.

Should you find any problems, please do not hesitate to contact me

Off to Build02,
