My original message:

> I'm almost sure I heard that there were public utililities out there
> that can decrypt such a file.

> Is there anything I can do to decrypt this file.
> Any information you can provide will be appreciated.

I got two responses from

          Fuat Baran <fuat@ans.net>
          Bill Bogstad <wjb@cogsci.cog.jhu.edu>

The answer was to get a copy of CBW - Crypt Breaker's Workbench.
This was posted to vol 10 of comp.sources.unix in 1987 and can be
found at many of the ftp sites.

Thanks for your help.
