crypto question

A question and a probe.

Question.  Is it possible to have code that contains a private encryption
key safely?  Every way I look at it the answer seems no, yet some degree of
safety might be possible by splitting an encrypting routine across several
nodes.  Can someone give me a pointer to any work in this area?

Probe.  Digital cash/gold, java, anonymous transactions, freenet  :  if at
least 3 of those are of keen interest to you and you have a little spare
time, I'd like to hear from you.

	cya,	Andrew...
