Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.68 for Windows.
This is a maintenance release, fixing a few minor issues, as described
below.
Thanks to Bjorne, dskrvk, huven, nobugshere and rafaelx for their help in this
release.
Thanks also to all the users who have provided bug reports, suggestions,
and the occasional donation...

New features in 3.68.0
----------------------
* In this release, PasswordSafe will significantly increase the standard
(default) unlock difficulty of PasswordSafe databases. This may cause a
noticeable slowdown when reading and writing databases.
 This is necessary to maintain the same level of security on today's
hardware as when PasswordSafe was originally released.
 * [GH1439] PasswordSafe now uses the system text color and background
instead of assuming black and white, respectively.

Bugs Fixed in 3.68.0
-----------------------
* [GH1408] Time fields (such as password modification time) are now copied
over correctly in sync operations between databases.

The PasswordSafe2Go version will be updated soon and available from
https://pwsafe.org/dok.shtml
(Owners of previous releases are invited to contact me for an update)
