hello

does anyone know if there are any irc clients that supper encryption for the log files? or maybe a script or add-on to a client
im looking for one to use in microsoft windows and another to use in linux

thanks

On Windows: go to the directory where your logfiles are stored, select them, right-clic, select properties, clic the 'Advanced' button, check the 'Encrypt contents to secure data' checkbox and apply. You are now the only one to be able to transparently access those files ; other users will see them as encrypted.

but i use microsoft windows 98 second edition hehe

then burn your computer. it is the only way to clense it.

if you want to encrypt some files, use an encryption ;P
Even if you encrypt the channel-talk with blowfish you can read it plaintext. So it will be saved plain text to the logs.
You could use PGP or Drivecrypt for fileencryption... better Drivecrypt Pro with encryption of the entire system.
On linux you could use a crypto container.
