For those of you who are really paranoid about their security theres a Linux distribution out there thats for you. Its called Tin Foil Hat Linux, featuring such useful security functionality as PGP key support and the ability to display encrypted messages via blinking the num lock led in morse code.

I wonder if this has been what Hunter has been coding for the last period of time.

Actually, if you wanted a really secure OS you would write your own and make everything proprietary - file system, encryption methods, - you name it. If you're the only person using it, then it's a lot harder for a hacker to get access. Not COMPLETELY secure (nothing ever is) but secure enough. Of course the time spent writing a complete operating system would take years and none of your Micro$hit stuff would work but hey what is a man to do?!

A man's computer is his castle.
