RE: my encrypted log files worked but now they dont
I'm having a similar problem. Somehow, at some point, some of my logs became encrypted with a password that is not mine. At one point, I did begin using a different password for things; however, neither of my two passwords, or a blank password, will open these files. There are no other users on my computer, and the only possible explanation is that Plus! did something wrong and encrypted them with a password I don't know.
Also, disabling encryption as described above doesn't decrypt them, nor does it decrypt logs in the monthly archives. I'd like to just decrypt everything and go to plain text again, as that seems to cause the least headaches.

If you have a password for a file, then the file is encrypted...I believe

RE: my encrypted log files worked but now they dont
i have had the same problem recently. many of my chat logs will not open and say I am entering the wrong password. i thought maybe one of my friends changed the password for encryption, so i put a lock on my preferences so it couldnt happen again and asked everybody who had used my computer if they changed ne thing. they had all said no, but until i read about others with this problem i assumed somebody had done it. possibly there is an error with the Plus encryption? it seems many ppl are having this problem, some of my logs open some dont...

Hum... could you all, who have problems, send me three of your logs along with your password to mplus@patchou.com ? I'll investigate the problem.
Thanks,

i may be wrong but i ve noticed that most if not all of the encrypted files which have had the passwords change for some reason seem to be those that i view / open while chatting with the person. or something along those lines. maybe someone with the time can check it out.

RE: my encrypted log files worked but now they dont
I used to work with msgplus 2.45 and my encrypted files worked perfectly... after i upgraded to the latest version they got all messed up, i got different logs for the same people and the password is now incorrect, even if i didnt change anything!
What can i do to reverse this problem? i cant install the old version due to compatibility with the latest messenger version... what can i do?? nothing works... even decryption software is unable to recover those files... i need them!
