G H O S T P H R A S E Newsletter 061216. Only for the paranoid. (Reg.) Dear Fan, First a little PRESENT. The free GHOSTPHRASE 2.5 is blocked for two days per month. This is to encourage people to buy a full version, of course. Since you are a faithful newsletter subscriber, you are now told which those days are for the current free 2.5 versions, if you haven't already figured it out: the 5th and the 15th. PUZZLE. Here is another seasonal puzzle for you: Decrypt the message posted on the GHOSTPHRASE message board beginning with 1333, using a famous slogan as the Link password, and the numbers of letters in the second row of this message as the Message key. The message contains the release date for the next GHOSTPHRASE STEEL edition! Remember to hurry before the message expires (19th)! CHALLENGE. The second GHOSTPHRASE cracking challenge has now ended, with no winners. The message was: 'A HA! SO YOU KNOW HOW TO CRACK THE GHOSTPHRASE CIPHER! WHAT A SINGULAR EXPERIENCE. BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE DONT.' The third Challenge, with USD 500 000 in the pot, will be posted early next year. COMPATIBILITY. As you probably know, GHOSTPHRASE is very easy to use since the messages can be sent and received using almost any email client. You can send from Outlook and receive with Gmail, or vice versa, or use Skype. There are no complicated plug-ins or installation procedures. Some users ask about edition compatibilities. All current free 2.5 versions are compatible with all other free 2.5 versions, regardless of the User password. Each STEEL, SILVER, and GOLD edition is unique and has a unique User password. They are only compatible with their own copies, with the same edition number and the same User password. FILE ENCRYPTION. Encryption of Word or Acrobat files is currently not supported by GHOSTPHRASE. The main reason is safety. If you first type in the text of a document, or receive it by ordinary email, and THEN encrypt it, chances are your opposition already has the clear text. This is the last newsletter of 2006. Thank you for your interest, and please stay with me for a very exciting 2007.
