Re: Winzip Encryption

["Brenno J.S.A.A.F. de Winter, WGASA" <brenno () dewinter com>]

Hi Wang,

Aren't this two things? One is the quality of the password (that the
cracker cracks) and the quality of the encryption. When people create a
bad password you're lost no matter how strong the encryption is, since
it is (part of) the key.

Cheers,

Brenno
