This SFX cipher checks whether the decrypting password is correct with a highly secure method, never compromising the key: while a 64 byte random number is created and also encrypted. While decrypting these two numbers are compared to test for the correctness of the password. Very simple, yet as safe as the algorithm itself. The license covers Multicrypt too. One license for two programs.
