February 2, 2004
We are proud to announce that TrueCrypt 1.0 has been released today.
To our best knowledge, it is currently the only free open-source
on-the-fly encryption software capable of encrypting partitions
larger than 2 GB under Windows XP/2000. On Windows XP/2000, it is
also the only open-source on-the-fly encryption system that offers
plausible deniability. It can either encrypt entire partitions or
devices, or it can create virtual encrypted disks within files.
TrueCrypt is based on (and might be considered a sequel to) a
discontinued product called Encryption for the Masses (E4M) by Paul
Le Roux. The differences between E4M and TrueCrypt include plausible
deniability, Windows XP support, significant increase in the volume
size limit, improved sector scrambling algorithm and many more.

LOL.
Eat your heart out Shaun "The Whiny Weiner" Hollingsworth.
You can stick your DriveCrypt up your ass for good now.
Now might be a good time to jump ship. SecurStar's future doesn't look good
at all now.
Hahaha............
LOL.

Congratulations on the release!
For those that are interested, I should have a Delphi component to
interface with the TrueCrypt driver SecureTrayUtil fairly soon now,
together with SecureTrayUtil support for this new package.

Are you still here?
I thought you'd gone and weren't coming back?
Bloody Liar!
N.B. Come back to moan some more have we?
Don't bother, TrueCrypt has accomplished more in VERSION 1 than DriveCrypt
hasn't even been able to do by VERSION 4.

Try again. I tested it when I first read this message (hm, last night I
think it was) and again now. No problem. Either you stumbled into a
temporary problem or the fault is somewhere with your connection not
theirs.

FWIW, when I try and access the link via Anonymizer's SSH tunnel, I
get a 'Host not Found' error so I suspect it's something to do with
your connection.
I just d/l version 1.0a with no problem so can confirm it is there and
working.

Name: www.truecrypt.org
Address: 65.161.144.72
However a http://65.161.144.72 didn't do much for me apart from giving me a
404. It probably needs the access to be for the hostname as opposed to IP I
suspect. Maybe you have better luck if you add it to your hosts file and
then use the hostname.

It looks as if I am having problems with DNS, the namservers I am using
cannot resolve the URL to an IP address. If it is a propagation problem
then the record may come up in 48hrs. Until then I am stuffed unless
anyone can give me Truecrypt's IP address.
Hoping for help

New sites do not show on google that fast (sometimes it can even take a
month before a new site shows up).
Thanks for the IP and I get the same error 404 but doing are reverse
lookup on the IP I get net-144-72.microworld.com/ so I suspect the site
is hosted and there are some problems with the DNS and the hosting.
Thanks anyway for your help and I'll keep trying the address and from
another site as well.

Can someone maybe post a mirror of 1.0a and/or 1.0? Truecrypt.org didn't
work for me either, and I tried from three different geographical
locations.

FYI, www.truecrypt.org is now no longer reachable from my location either.
Same PC I verified it worked from earlier today.

Could you post here the MD5 sums for the truecrypt zip files (1.0 and 1.0a)
thanks, cymago
Seems really down. Could someone upload truecrypt.zip to
alt.binaries.freeware ?
>For more information, please visit www.truecrypt.org
The site itself is up.
DNS for it is down.
edit you hostfile:
WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

You seem to be the only one who has managed to download this release.
Questions: what size is it?
can it be zipped and sent as an email attachment?
or can it be posted to an alt.binaries group for the
rest of us to have a look at?
Regards
Keith
PS
You can email me take the dots out of my name and remove the obvious
