Came accross this site which offers transparent end to end 2048 bit encryption.I was reading something re a bill which has gone or will be shortly going througth parliament which enables the government in the UK to monitor joe public's e-mails. If your worried about your privacy it's worth getting a a/c. Might be wrong but i beleive the gov can't grack it.

So far I have been quite happy with pgp for e-mail. As far as encrypting my files I use AES 256bit encryption. Depending on which OS I'm in at the time determines which prog I will use.
Thanks for the update Werpon.

www.pgpi.org has pgp for international use. you can make a 4096Bit key 
Strong enough for ya.
You can also use it for signing things too.
note: i don't recommend the adapter encryption stuff, it's tricky and it messes up wireless connections. Don't install the VPN Net feature if you use a wireless card.
7.0 is better then 8.0 because 8.0 is nag ware.
good luck.

isn't this governmentsecurity.org? no i have no secrets only lies lol j/k
Actually 1024 has been broken for pgp. 4096 is like using AES 128 or 256, don't let the bit size fool you.

Just a catchy name nothing moreisn't this governmentsecurity.org?

Thanks for clearing that up, I was letting the bit size fool me. Right now I do use AES 256 on backups of my pst and microsoft money files. I would'nt want my account information to be found by someone on a cd I leave laying around by an accident.
