If you're not 100% sure of what this is or how to use it, stay very far away. It gave me a 3 month long nightmare and there is ZERO support.

100% sure.

The only people you have to worry about is your government, and there are NO applications that they can't get around. Also under homeland security, software makers and communication companies have to share with them what ever they ask for.

So why are you using this ?

Paranoid about hackers. I'm not.

If you're using this because you're doing something wrong, you're going to get caught sooner or later.
This will just give you a false sense of security and cause you to be more wreak-less.

I find it's better to cover your ass to where it would hold up in court. Then no worries.
