May be taking on a new account where the Doc may Fed X the tapes and I send back through E-mail. What is everyone ideas of free encrypted mail and even ones that you pay?  I tried to convince him digital and then FTP site but I think he is from the stone age and would not adhere.  If there are any other ways to send files(completed) let me know.

Thanks

I use a free program called FilePhile.  I found out about it when I was searching for an alternative to FTP.  It enables you to send/receive files of unlimited size, even large voice files.  Both the sender and the receiver must have the program downloaded. 

I am not a very tech-saavy person, so I wanted something that would be quick and easy to use.  FilePhile fit the bill, and the fact that it's free was an added bonus!   ');>   Most importantly for the MT biz, it's also compliant with HIPAA guidelines since it utilizes 128-bit secure encryption.

I do this right from Word. Ctrl-O to open up the dialog box. Highlight what you want to send and then right-click. Move to WinZip and when then choose Zip and Email Plus. When it asks for the name, use the one they have to give it one that you want. Click the box for Encrypt File and then click OK. Enter your password twice. If you want to see the password as you type it, make sure the Mask Password box is checked. You also want the Zip 2.0 Compatible box checked. Click OK and the rest is easy to figure out.

Is there anyone out there who could tell me how I could listen to encrypted files in my Express Scribe which I receive through email???  I am able to receive and listen to them just fine when not encrypted, but cannot figure out how to set ES up to use a password.  When I click on the voice file in my inbox, it now takes me to ES, but displays an ERROR box stating  - unable to open DSS file, this means the file might not be a true DSS file or the file is corrupt.

Yesterday, I posted this on the wrong board, but did receive some response anyway and thanks!  Still now working though. Someone told me that I needed to get the User Id # from the clinic's software program they are using.  The person I subcontract for thought that the User Id from her Olympus DSS software would work, but I am not so sure since the files originally come from the clinic. 

I would rather not have to purchase the Olympus program if not necessary.  I would think there would be some way to receive these encrypted files with their password.  I have also tried to leave the User ID area blank or enter 0, but this does not work either. Keep getting the ERROR message as above.   

The files are coming from a dss program called Olympus if that matters.  Any insight would be greaaaatly appreciated!!!
