    Hi there,

    Am 15:58 26.04.2004 -0400 teilte security@rexwire.com mir folgendes mit:
    ->We did not find any backdoors but we found out that he
    encrypted two columns
    ->of data in a access database. The data in the columns look like
    this
    ->:)Orwjwlrju)Yuƒ)\}n);<99
    ->
    ->We cant figure out how he encrypted it. Has anyone seen this
    before?

    No, I haven't seen that before.
    However, it's probably "1 Financial Plz Ste 2300" (Not sure about the "z",
    that could be a "%" also, depending on conversion
    issues.)
    Now you know it, it should be easy to find out what happened. :) (Dunno if
    that's an Access feature?)

    Best regards, JO
