Not to rain on your parade, but I think if any of us told the CIA we were running around playing minds games in the restrooms of some obscure cult, with the "dangerous opposition" consisting of 23-yr old janitors and window washers they'd put us away!!!!
This is true. But at the same time not many people have an understanding of Public Key Encryption, or any sense of "Op-Sec" at all.
Well done solder! Three days of in the trenches win you six days of R&R!
The hit-and-run-poop-poster struck again! Who was that masked poster?
The Poop-Poster. I like that. I think I will print this on the back of my flyers the next time...............................This "truth" is has been brought to you by the "Poop-Poster."
Public Key Encryption, or any sense of "Op-Sec"
Huh? What are these?
-K, one of the ones without the special understanding...
Sorry for being a little nebulus. Public Key Encryption is also known as DES. (Data Encryption Standard.) It is just a way of making SURE that the only person who reads what you wrote, is the person you WANT to read it. I have an area on my hard drive called a PGP Disk. It is where I keep all my email files, and Word documents that could get me DF'ed. With the touch of one key, it is encrypted with a 4096 bit AES-256 military grade encryption code. And the passphrase is a long one, that resides ONLY in my head.
Op-Sec stands for Operational Security. It's just some lingo I picked up from spending so much time with my friends in the military, and the encryption forums.
BTW, I also highly recommend a program called CCleaner. I use it before I shut down my computer all the time. (I have it set to run automatically before power off.) This program "sanitizes" your computer, and keeps any prying eyes from finding out who you talked to, or where you have been online.
That's pretty far out J-1!
I don't think anyone would be that interested in my computer files.
Do you have folks in your house that snoop through your stuff? Is it mainly apostate things you are protecting or do you have other top secret stuff...?
-K, feeling kinda boring by comparison...
And speaking of snooping ;) where are you from in California? I grew up there- always trying to find people from my past.
(You can PM me if that's better)
-K
Good job Justice-One, well done. Let's hope someone benefits from your efforts and exits the borg sometime in the near future.

Hey if I had any REALLY secret stuff, it would not be in my computer. LOL. But I have brought the art living a double life to all new highs. I understand that I made my bed a long time ago, and I now have to sleep in it as best I can. As for the computer, I use Windows 2000 Pro. And it has multiple user accounts on it for the family. I take NO chances. Maybe it only seems easy to me, but trust me, it is NOT hard to find out what someone has been doing on a computer. Unless that someone has taken prudent precautions. For instance, did you know that Windows Outlook keeps every email you have ever sent or received (even if you have DELETED it) in a secret file that most don't know about? There are many places Windows likes to put info that most would never think to look. (Win98 called these DMR files.)
Anyway, maybe I am being paranoid. But as I like to say, - Are you being paranoid when they really are out to get you?

You're referring to .pst's and .mbx's?
(Outlook and Outlook Express respectively)
