After the good job that we have done with this site in the past 2 months, we have decided to sell onemileaway.com and all its content. At this moment the website produces several unique visitors per month, and has an Alexa rank of 1,069,434 . The traffic is still increasing everyday due to the SEO-strategies we have applied. This is an excellent opportunity for everybody who would buy a site already launched. The price is only 20.000$ and it is negotiable. Email us if you are interested. Thanks. |

You almost certainly have sensitive data files on your PC, such as your bank account summary or your on-line bank account passwords. Usually these files are stored in clear text format on your notebook: what happens if your notebook is stolen, or at worst, if your file sharing program makes your documents world wide available?
The same situation occurs when you send an email to a work associate, in which you discuss the next marketing strategy of your company. An information like that is classified as confidential because you expect that only you and your colleague will read it. But this is not what happens in the internet world: in fact the email you compose is sent with pop3 or smtp protocol and it means that the email travels in clear text throught pop3 servers, and throught any hosts placed in the middle... the plain thruth is that all these hosts could easily read your email ! The two problems above are solved with the use of a free enciphering software, such a GnuPG which gives you the possibility to encrypt your emails and all your sensitive data files with a password. Doing this, there is no chance for a malicious insider to decript your email contents for the simple reason that he doesn't know your password. Of course, he could try to guess your password, but if you encrypt your files with a strong algorithm such as 128 bit AES, the bad guy will take about 10^13 years (with a current hardware machine) to guess the right passphrase!  |
