Subject: Honey Encryption

I didn't think much of the technique, but I remembered some Zip files
(aes256) false positive just like this and I had to re-think my position.
If it's combining bcrypt/scrypt "speed" and giving you those FP's then
maybe. Again it's encryption not hashing so it's more like the zip example
I guess.

I haven't checked a recent version of John out, does AES256 zip still FP?
