pgp questions

[Evoir]

So, I understand that pgp is installed on FQ servers, right? Is there any fee associated with using pgp? I have pgp installed on my mac (not even sure how/when it got there) Version 6.5.

I kept reading weird stuff, netsol, free version, blah blah. Really, it was all confusing. Can someone summarize the hostory and let me know if there is currenmtly a fee to use pgp on my mac or pc?

Thanks. Evie

Evie, PGP is still doing a Freeware version for non-commercial use. Here is what they say about that version:
PGP FREEWARE

PGP Freeware 8.0 will be available in Q4 2002.

We will continue PGP's tradition of offering a freeware version of PGP Mail for non-commercial use.

PGP Freeware is a single-user product that includes the same core PGP Mail software that can be found in our PGP Desktop packages. PGP Mail encrypts electronic mail, files, and instant messages, and also provides the ability to create and manage PGP keys.

PGP Freeware is licensed solely to individual users for non-commercial use. Freeware may NOT be used for any commercial interactions. Users in commercial settings must immediately license PGP commercial products.
