(I need to know, 'cos > I'm going to upgrade or modify both of these soon) Sean says I am wrong, well, perhaps I am, but last time I checked encryption software was still on the munitions list, and anything on that list is subject to import as well as export regulations. If infact encryption software has been removed from the munitions lists we are probably fine to import it. Some one care to go deal with our lovely state department???
