Thanks, iskarion.

I had considered that, but I would really like to avoid having to open up xterm, navigate via lots of typing to a distant destination folder, read the help for openssl (my memory is bad), type in commands, open the decrypted file, read it, then delete it.

The beauty of xarchiver is the "view" option and the fact that it has a nice gui that allows easy browsing of the filesystem.

On a desktop computer, command line stuff is great, but on the N810, with the inadequate keyboard, I really, really prefer to stay in the GUI as much as possible.

But I do greatly appreciate your taking the time to reply. Thanks again!

I wonder how paranoid I need to be. If the NIT is lost, will it be found by someone with enough smarts to try to crack a weakly encrypted .zip, buried in an obscure folder with an odd name?
