Reading Archival CDs from the PayMyBills Service?

renehollan asks: "PayMyBills produces Windows-only year-end archive CDs, without warning. Has anyone tried to read these under Linux, Solaris or other non-MS operating systems? My experience to date is here." I can emphasize with renehollan, here: apparently PayMyBills sends out scanned images of the checks used to pay your bills, however they go to great lengths to make sure the information is only usable on Windows without mentioning it as a requirement for their archive CDs. I assume this is done so that the data on the disk can be "encrypted" (or just password protected) when the disk is published. Has anyone else using this service been able to get at the pertinent data?

If you take a lok at the class files under JAD, I am sure you will find a hard coded string literal "../dir" name. Send them a Bug Fix which is:

String astring = new StringBuffer("..").append(File.separator).append(" dir");
