this is intended as a warning to users of disk encryption products, as i am to understand some of you are on [EMAIL PROTECTED] i strongly discourage anyone from purchasing securedoc personal edition for use on windows, as it is a poorly designed product that offers zero support in the event of problems.
this once again reinforces, IMO, the need, not simply the desire, for open source disk encryption solutions. i am being held hostage by these blob bartering buffoons for data recovery at 200 usd / hr, with no estimate of how long it will take to recover the data. i have NEVER had a problem like this with my cgd or svnd encrypted files and don't expect that i would since they're WELL-DESIGNED encryption schemes, IMO. of course, i realize that i SHOULD have a backup of all this data and have been kicking myself in the ass about it for a couple weeks. never gonna let this crap happen again... do not buy this product! no need to reply to this post on-list since this is intended as a PSA to help protect other disk-security conscious individuals on misc@ who are forced to deal with crappy OSes.
