JulianCode

Encrypting Instructions

Choose a word that you and the recipient of you message will use as a decoding-key. Enter that word in the box at left marked "Keyword."
Enter the message you would like to encrypt in the lower (larger) box at left.
Click on the "Encode" button to encrypt your message -- you'll see your message replaced by the encrypted text string.
Select the encrypted text and copy it into your e-mail message.
Send the encrypted text to its intended recipient.
Instruct your recipient to come to this Web page, enter the keyword (in the keyword box) and the encrypted text (in the lower, larger box). When they click "Decode," your message well be back to its original form.
If the "init_msg" parameter is included, its value will be shown in the text area on start up. By previously encoding a message for your site's visitors, and then setting the value of this tag to the encoded text, you can use the JulianCodeApplet to show priviliged visitors your secret message.
People using the applet should include the header (unencoded text) in their e-mail so the recipient would be sure to know where to decode it. If the whole header is included, it will be seamlessly removed.

Better than a secret-decoder-ring, the JulianCodeApplet allows anyone to have relatively secure e-mail by allowing for on-the-fly encryption/decryption of text messages. Whether you place the applet on a protected Web site, or on your local machine, secure communication is now truly a no-brainer!

Of course, there are no guarantees here -- the encryption is breakable by a professional programmer, but for personal communication it should be more than enough to dissuade your boss/friends/mother-in-law (just kidding) from reading your e-mail! Be careful -- Have fun!

How To Use: Download JulianCodeApplet.class and place it within your HTML directory. Please maintain the copyright notice at the bottom of the applet and include an HTML link to The Gilbert Post.
