G-Crypt is an advanced encryption program for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME. It is unique in the way that the password actually affects how the file is encrypted. You can encrypt or decrypt any file - it will operate whether the password is correct or not, but if you try and decrypt a file with a password that was not the password used to encrypt it, the resulting file will not be the original. G-Crypt is overall, a small, but powerful encryption tool.

It uses the only way to "hides" files so they cannot be seen with ANY type of directory command or file search. It is not a "hidden file" flag that can be overcome by the show all option. The only way to find a file hidden with Ghost Host is to use an exhaustive file-content search utility that reads all files on the disk and looks for specific strings (usually only works with ASCII type files). Ghost Host hides any file type behind many common file types, such as *.wpd, *.doc, *.bmp.

The latest release of the powerful file encryption/decryption utility. FileCode alters a file's bytes in a way that makes it totally unreadable/unusable. The correct password is not stored anywhere in the encrypted file, making unauthorised access impossible. FileCode's small size and ease of use does not limit it's features - new features include clipboard encrypt/decrypt, recurse directories, EasyCode password and the ability to create an encrypted, customised log. All this and more - for free!

The neet thing about this program is that every time you encrypt a file, it is different, no matter if it is the same file even with the same password, it will always be different.

File encryption and decryption utility for W95 and NT. If you have ever felt the need to leave a file on a computer (yours or not), modified in some way so that nobody else can read and understand it, this program is a must for you. It uses a cyclic algorithm (the same routine is used to crypt and decrypt) that does not modify the size of the file, and the interface is extremely easy to use and intuitive.
