Anyone out there know if the Blowfish32 encryption method is still secure?
It uses a 400+key and 32 round encryption. A co-worker of mine said he
"heard" the federal government forced the author to give them the goods. I
hate to follow vague rumors but since I use this encryption method
personally...

TIA
