Introduction:
=============
This program will help you keep those prying eyes out of your
personal data.  I have written this program because of the security
problem with the Pilot: Any records marked secret on the Pilot can
easily be read with any binary editor on the PC.  Data that is
encrypted with this program can only be decrypted with the password
it was encrypted with.


Limits for Shareware version:
=============================
The shareware version has two limits:
  - Maximum number of records is 5
  - Annoying Registration reminder


Changes:
========
Version 1.0:    -Added list view
                -Fixed error on delete record
                -Added registration program

Version 0.95B:  -Increased record size to 4096
                -Added New and Delete buttons
                -Show register message less often
                -Better encryption logic
                -Added program icon
                -Added scroll capability to data

Version 0.9B:   -Initial Version


Instructions:
=============
Password Suggestions:
  - use long passwords
  - include numbers and symbols
  - use mixed case passwords
  - do not use the same password as you use to lock your Pilot;
    if the Pilot Desktop can get that password I'm sure others can
    as well

No encryption is perfect.  However, if you use long and mixed
passwords this encryption is very secure.
