- Encrypt-it! version 4.0
- March 20, 2001
- ******************************************************
-
-
- Please read this file, it contains important information about the
- program. Please also read the Help file included with the program.
-
- Encrypt-it! is a high security file encryption/decryption utility
- for all of your EPOC files. Use it to protect sensitive business
- and personal files, E-mail attachments, contact lists or anything
- else. It is sophisticated yet easy to use. With all the algorithms
- programmed in C++, Encrypt-it! is the fastest and highest security
- encryption utility ever featured on a Psion palmtop!
-
- The program is intended to run on the Psion Series 5, 5mx, 7, Revo,
- netBook, Ericsson MC-218 and other EPOC palmtop computers.
-
-
- WHAT'S NEW?
- ***********
-
- v4.0: * The interface of the program has entirely been redesigned.
- The main dialog is now multi-tabbed (it uses nMPD.OPX),
- with all the options and functions logically arranged.
-
- * A stand-alone wiping tool has been added: use it to "wipe"
- the free space on either the internal drive or a compact
- flash disk. This way, sensitive data even from deleted,
- un-encrypted files can't be recovered.
-
- * During decrypting or Quick updating, if you mistype a
- password, you now have one more chance to enter it correctly.
-
- * The program can check if a file with the same name (and
- potentially newer content) already exists when decrypting.
- You can select from three options: always overwrite these
- existing files, never overwrite, or ask you first.
-
- * The Quick update routine uses a different, slightly faster
- method to launch files. Also, all current and future files
- are recognised by this routine (if they have a unique icon
- at the system screen). Text files are now launched using
- the Symbian Text Editor.
-
- * New options are introduced like setting an initial batch
- folder, or disabling masking of the password. This latter
- is great if you want to copy/paste long passwords directly
- into the password-entry field.
-
- * Support to run from drive E: has been added.
-
- * Other minor bug-fixes and optimisations.
-
-
- v3.0: * Revo support, "Data" file compacting, automatic closing of
- launched files (time-out), TomeRaider support.
-
- The complete history can be found in the Help.

- INSTALLATION
- ************
-
- 1) Encrypt-it! comes in a "SIS" installation package. This file
- includes all language variants, but only your choice will be
- installed, using the "Add/Remove" control panel. If you don't
- have this control panel yet, you can download it at
- http://www.psion.com/downloads/epoc32/add_remove_control_panel/
-
- 2) Copy the SIS file into any folder on your EPOC machine, high-
- light it and press enter. The program will be automatically
- installed.
-
- 3) You are now ready to run Encrypt-it! It's icon should appear
- on the Extras bar, so just click on it. Please read the Help
- file before you use the program.
-
- 4) Convert your old encrypted files (versions 1.5 and before) to
- the new version (versions 2.0 and above). First run the file
- "decrypt.opo" in the \system\apps\encrypt folder to decrypt
- all these files, then encrypt them again using the single
- mode or batch mode of the new version of the program.
- If you are certain that all your files are encrypted using
- the new version, you can delete the file "decrypt.opo" to
- save disk space.
