 I'm sure anyone who's serious with PGP keeps it updated anyway, so it
 should be fine ;)

except for the lack of randomness since v5...
I wouldnt be surprised though from what I hear if some version will be
stuck together less those unwanted pieces of code CA stuck in.
It just a matter of the right stimulance being needed.

Best regards,

Thanks, Thomas. I will do so, but of course, there's no one there till Monday.
And I get more and more leery of trying to get any kind of response
from customer/tech support departments, the more time I waste trying
to find someone who cares 8-(.

SOT: PGP bug squished (was Re: Gaping hole in NAI PGP)

2000-08-26 Thread Deryk Lister

It's all sorted now.  The nai PGP servers (ie certserv.pgp.com) now
filter out keys with bogus ADK packets, and there's a new version
6.5.8 available from www.pgpi.com
I'm sure anyone who's serious with PGP keeps it updated anyway, so it
should be fine ;)

Okay, I have a question. I've used PGP Freeware forever, but recently
bought McAfee VirusScan Deluxe for almost nothing, and PGP
Personal Privacy 6.5.3 was included.

I went to www.pgp.com and read NAI's PGP ADK Security Advisory there,
which says, "The MIT web site should have a new PGP 6.5.x freeware
release early Friday, and the NAI/PGP web site should have patches out
for the commercial releases at about the same time."

However, I can find no mention of PGP for Personal Privacy on the Web
Product page. And if I go to the generic upgrade section, I'm asked
for "grant number" or a login and password. All I have is VirusScan
serial number.

Does anyone know where I can find an upgrade for PGP for Personal
Privacy? Or is this just PGP Freeware under a different name and with
a couple of additional components? Will upgrading to the freeware
version do the job?

FWIW, I don't feel a lot of urgency to this, since I don't use ADK;
like Deryk, I just always try to stay current. From the press releases
I've read, if my key is compromised, I will have to "acknowledge a
warning dialog that an ADK is associated with the certificate", and
will know not to use it.
