ABOUT THE SECURE ORDER FORM

Andromeda Research created the secure order form to allow orders to be placed via email(first image). The form is a screen oriented program which allows you to fill in all information required to place your order(second image). You may then review the information for correctness and save a copy for yourself. After you have filled in the information, you instruct the form to encrypt the data. Using our unique three step rotating encyption algorithm, your information changes to an unreadable form which is safe to send as an email attachment(third image). To place your order simply send us an email with the encrypted order file as an attachment. When your order is received, it will be decrypted and entered into our system. An email will be sent to you confirming that your order has been received. The text and images below describe how the form is used.

Step 1 - Download the file form.zip to any location on your computer including your desktop. When you unzip the download you will see two files: form.exe and instructions.txt.
Step 2 - If you want detailed, step-by-step instructions, read the instructions.txt file using notepad or some other word processor.
Step 3 - Double click or run the form.exe file. The screen at the right will appear. If you would like to use full screen mode press ALT-<ENTER>.
Step 4 - Fill in each field of the form with your order information. When you are finished with a field, press the TAB key to move to the next field. If you wish to move to a previous field press <SHIFT>-TAB. To correct a mistake use the BACKSPACE key. If you want to clear the form and start over press <ALT>-C. Note: These are the only keys used for entering and editing your information. The form performs no calculations so you must enter the totals for each item plus the total cost.
Step 5 - Complete the fields on the form which are required to describe your order. You may use the NOTE1,2 and 3 fields for any additional information you wish to convey.
Step 6 - Once the form is complete press <ALT-S> to save your copy of the unencrypted form. The file is called copy.txt. You will see an indicator at the bottom of the screen indicating that the form has been saved. The file is saved in the same location as form.exe.
Step 7 - You are now ready to encrypt the form. Press <ALT>-E. You will see the fields change to unintelligible characters. Your information is now encrypted and ready to be saved.
Step 8 - Press <ALT>-S to save the encrypted form. A message will indicate that the form has been saved. The encrypted file is called send.bin and is saved in the same location as form.exe.
Step 9 - Press ESC to exit and close the form program.
Step 10 - Start your email program and send an email to arlabs@fuse.net or arlabs@worldnet.att.net with the send.bin file as an attachment. The subject and contents of the email are not important and can be as simple as "order attached" or whatever you choose.
NOTE: To view the copy of your order simply restart form.exe. The fields appear already filled with the information from your copy.txt file.
