  13. Hello netters... It's me again... :-)
  14.  
  15. I just tried hacking ARJ security envelopes, and discovered that
  16. they are reasonably easy to forge.  I have notified Robert Jung 
  17. of the weakness, and have offered to work with him to correct the
  18. problem.
  19.  
  20. Sincerely,
  21. Paul Kocher
