Hi there,

Am 15:58 26.04.2004 -0400 teilte security () rexwire com mir folgendes mit:
->We did not find any backdoors but we found out that he
encrypted two columns
->of data in a access database. The data in the columns look like
this
->:)Orwjwlrju)Yuƒ)\}n);<99
->
->We cant figure out how he encrypted it. Has anyone seen this
before?

No, I haven't seen that before.
However, it's probably "1 Financial Plz Ste 2300" (Not sure about the "z",
that could be a "%" also, depending on conversion
issues.)
Now you know it, it should be easy to find out what happened. :) (Dunno if
that's an Access feature?)

Best regards, JO
