Readme file for Offline AutoPGP v2.11
WARNING: This program requires use of the Pretty Good Privacy (PGP)
public key encryption program by Philip Zimmermann. Before you start
using Offline AutoPGP, make sure that you are not violating national
law, as use of PGP may be prohibited in some countries. Furthermore,
the RSA algorithm employed by PGP is patented by a California company
called Public Key Partners (U.S. patent #4,405,829) and you may be
infringing this patent if you use PGP version 2.3a or earlier in the
USA.

How to install/upgrade Offline AutoPGP:
1. Check the integrity of DECRYPT.EXE, ENCRYPT.EXE, INSTALL.EXE and
REGISTER.EXE by executing CHECKSIG.BAT.
2. Copy all the files in the distribution archive to a separate directory
(e.g. C:\PGP\APGP\).
2a. If you are upgrading from an earlier version, simply replace the old
files in your AutoPGP directory with the new ones. Do not erase the
old AUTOPGP.CFG!
3. Change to the AutoPGP directory (CD C:\PGP\APGP) and run INSTALL.
4. Enter '<READER>' to start your mail reader, where <READER> is the
name of the batch file generated by INSTALL.
5. You may now use Offline AutoPGP freely within the evaluation period,
which is 30 days. If you want to continue using AutoPGP after this,
you will have to register it. See details in AUTOPGP.DOC.
