Subject: RE: BS: Internet Freedom Under Fire
There is no totally secure encryption that I'm aware of. Three Chinese researchers cracked SHA-1 in February 2005, and that's used in PGP, SSH, SSL, S/MIME, VPN, and IPSec. PkCrack will break PKZip encryption. In 1998 it was reported that the DES encryption standard was broken.
