I usually agree, but remember, clients are rarely very technical people, 
and won't use anything that
is too complicated. That's why PGP had limited utility- most people were 
unable to use it. I've tried more
complex methods (heavy encrypting of ZIP files attached to email) and 
found several messages simply
intercepted for several days while they cracked a few of my encrypted 
ZIP files.

I finally discarded email methods altogether, as taking too much time.  
This IM method has NO spam,
no ads, just reliable communication, allowing me to reliably communicate 
easily with contract programmers
and clients. One client has it on his Thinkpad, & can IM from anywhere 
WiFi is available when travelling.

I WOULD like your opinion, Peter. Can you take a look and give me your 
opinion? If you want to test it,
contact me as Az_Engineer.  Its free. http://www.igo-incognito.com .
