Anyone know where I can get one of those decryption programs?

Doesn't VeSoft allow one to limit what LDEVs, IP addresses or other
connections a given user could have? That would at least keep someone
from decrypting my password, and just supplying it at another PC or from
a dial-in. It seems that there are measures that one can take to add to
remote access security to shore up said weaknesses.
