CipherBox Zap is FREEWARE.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All versions of CipherBox and CipherBox Zap from v0.2.x and up will begin
creating newer cbx files which are NOT backward compatable with previous
versions of CipherBox and CipherBox Zap.

As these products move closer towards a true release version, the cbx format
may continue to improve and no longer support older versions.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you did not download the full install version, then Visual Basic 6.0 runtime
libraries are required.

You will also need to copy the file CryptLib.dll to your \Windows\System
directory, or \WINNT\SYSTEM32 for Windows NT/2000.

GWCryptLib.Dll is a small library created with Visual C++, which allows
CipherBox to crypt data much faster than the Visual Basic environment allows.

zlib1.dll is a library from zlib.org which offers free compression utilities.

About CipherBox Zap
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CipherBox Zap uses RC4 "like" :) Encryption to encrypt/decrypt entire folders
and their contents into one large file (sorta like a zip file).

This version of CipherBox can only handle files that total under 2.0 gigs and
have less than 65,535 folders.

CipherBox Zap now supports compressing files. When compressing files, only
memory is used.  When uncompressing files, a temp file is created in your
extract path with the extention ".zlib", then it is uncompressed to the
final file.

Since compression is handled by the dll, there is no communication with the
dll while compression is in progress, so no status messages will be
displayed.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Drag a folder into the view to create a box file.
Drag the box file into the view to extract it back to your hard drive.

Using File, Open Box, you can view the contents of your box.  From this screen
you will be able to extract all the files, or just files you highlight.

NOTE: CipherBox Zap memorizes your password as long as it is running.  After
you close CipherBox, your password is cleared. You can remove this option from
the settings menu. Also, if you were to type a bad password, it will be
memorized, so you will need to re-type it in the settings menu, since it will
not be asked again, even if the password is bad.
