Folks,
The DES key search is making serious progress. The leading contender
seems to be DESCHALL http://www.frii.com/~rcv/deschall.htm
They are currently searching >3.5 billion keys per second. Estimated time
to completion is 14 weeks.
It is no longer a question if the key will be found. We now need to make
sure that it is found as quickly as possible.
Please download and run the software.
Thanks,
