I'm going to be introducing AxCrypt to our Windows users - easy to
install and use.  What I like about it is the ability to encrypt a file
with auto-decryption (creates and exe file) you can send to someone who
doesn't have AxCrypt installed:

I *hope* it still requires you to transmit the password for the file
via some out-of-band means.  Auto-magic auto-decrypt without a password
isn't crypto, it's merely obfuscation....
