- Yeap, you have the EXPORT version, Previously PKWARE was limited to who they
- could export encryption to, but now that has been greatly reduced. You can tell
- that it is an export version beacause your version number is 1.1., not just 1.1
- 1.1. <- note last point, signafies export version.. Get version 1.1
