Sure, and the URLs still work. The first URL opens the story and
the PGP doc is mentioned at the jump at the 2nd URL:

go=ES45175

http://semanal.expresso.pt/internacional/artigos/interior.asp?edicao=1520&id
_artigo=ES45132

Here's Babelfish translation of the passage:

  To the side of some techniques of combat, apparently
  rudimentary, were possible to find a manual on one of
  the techniques of criptagem of more advanced electrsnicas
  communications of the world, Pretty Good Privacy (PGP).
  This method, practically considered inviolable, was forbidden
  by the Congress them United States for distrust that could
  be used to hide activities terrorist.
