Please forgive the follow up to myself, but I was just pointed to this 
article concerning a security problem with the commercial version of
Network Associate's PGP.

While the author appears to not understand the difference between the
free and commercial versions of PGP, he does discuss a security hole
that commercial users should be aware of.
