Blowfish Advanced CS is a easy to use encryption and disk wipe program, removing the extra step of typing in a password every time you view an encrypted file. Instead, the program caches the key and allows the dynamic viewing of encrypted files, renamed to a .BFA extension. To view, open them inside the Blowfish Advanced CS file manager or drag-and-drop them into the program window. Note that edits are not dynamically encrypted to the same location. Files must be decrypted and then edited.

The program includes a variety of security options including use of a key disk, a time-out for available decryption, multiple algorithms including Blowfish (default), AES, Twofish, Serpent, etc., multiple file / empty disk space shredding options, and more. Compression options are also available.

@Mixture; I just copied and pasted the link "https://web.archive.org/web/20130422065149/http://www.lassekolb.info/bfacs.htm" and I was able to download, where as before I was clicking the link. Thanks.
I quit using afterdawn.com many years ago as I was always getting nasty's along with any download.
Thanks again.

http://www.afterdawn.com/software/security/encryption/blowfish_advanced_cs_portable.cfm
is another good link to the portable version.
The web.archive.com address needs to include ALL the address clear to the .htm end.

Sorry: although the above download link says portable it too wants you to install, not simply unzip an run!

I did find a download link to the portable version:

Hummm Got an HTTP 302 response at crawl time, Clicked on your link above!

Also the download at sourceforge gives the install version only

Still can't find any portable. Info above says "Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch bfacs.exe" can't find any "ZIP" to download. Thanks anyway I'll use Veracrypt.

@Allen,
I just tested both of the links I posted. They still work fine.

v2.57

Allen 2015-02-25 22:13

It appears that all links are dead? The only one I can get to download is not portable and wants to install.
