    Well, XP has its own encryption... you can always use that.

    Or... if you don't trust it... use something else.

    I don't have any problems using pgp on my XP Pro SP1 box.

    http://www.pgpi.org/cgi/download.cgi...eeware602i.exe is the exact version I use...
    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    I have PGP and I like it. Also, quite secure. Just look at their website and check out the challenges that have not been cracked. Use 1024 or 2048 bit encryption

    The only version of PGP I could get to work properly on XP is 8.0.2 (no compatibility mode). If you want to use PGP, try to get an upgrade or that version....Good Luck.

    I have 8.0.2 and it works fine with XP, maybe the newer versions will as well.
