BCArchive
http://www.jetico.com/index.htm#/bcarchive.htm

The BCArchive software is designed to compress a group
of files/folders to a single encrypted file.

BCArchive uses powerful algorithms, such as IDEA and Blowfish
to encrypt the data and the PKCS #5 standard for derivation
encryption key from the password string.


The BCArchive software allows the user to:
- Create compressed and encrypted archive file protected by password.
- Create compressed and encrypted archive file encrypted using
the public key of another user.
- Add a number of passwords to an existing archive file.
- Apply more than one public keys to an archive file enabling a number
of users to decrypt the archive.
- Generate new or use existing secret/public key pairs in
PKCS-12/X.509 format.
- Compress and encrypt data to a self-extracted executable program.
The user can run the program and extract the data even on a computer
where BCArchive is not installed.


BCArchive utilizes the following encryption algorithms,
standards and specifications:
- Symmetric algorithms: Blowfish, IDEA, Triple-DES and CAST5.
- Secure Hash Algorithms: SHA-1, MD5 and RIPEMD-160.
- Asymmetric (public/secret key pair) algorithms: RSA,
ElGamal / Diffie-Hellman.
- Specifications for public/secret key pair format: PKCS #12, X.509.
- PKCS #5 (recommendations for the implementation of
password-based cryptography).
- RFC 2440 specifications for session keys encrypted by symmetric
or public key encryption algorithms


What's New:
BCArchive version 1.06 (01-July-2005).
BCArchive now supports Windows XP 64-bit Edition.

BCArchive version 1.05 (02-June-2005).
Support of the latest definitions for AES encryption algorithm in PGP
is added. For compatibility with PGP, BCArchive performs checking
of decrypted PGP secret keys using SHA-1 hash algorithm together
with earlier standardized MPI checksum

BCArchive version 1.04 (20-April-2005).
Problem of opening large archives (more than 32 GB) is solved.

Well, dang it, it could be... You're right.

'Course I just chose the first download that said BCrypt from their
download page.

'Guess I'll have to lay off the hard drugs a little earlier in the
evening from now on...
