Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private conversations over instant messaging by providing:
One Tuesday morning, The Vault started acting strange. When Alex plugged it in, the LED light blinked slowly, the drive spun up, but… nothing. No drive letter in Windows. Just an ominous message: “Please insert a disk into USB Drive E:.”
: Available for free, this version allows users to read drive parameters but restricts any writing or modification of firmware.
Alex wasn’t a data recovery expert. He was just a photographer with a deadline. His trusty 2TB Western Digital external hard drive—nicknamed “The Vault”—held five years of client work, including a wedding gallery due in 48 hours.
: The most advanced version, offering specialized functions for complex data recovery cases.
This is the portable OTR Messaging Library, as well as the toolkit to help you forge messages. You need this library in order to use the other OTR software on this page. [Note that some binary packages, particularly Windows, do not have a separate library package, but just include the library and toolkit in the packages below.] The current version is 4.1.1.
UPGRADING from version 3.2.x
This is the Java version of the OTR library. This is for developers of Java applications that want to add support for OTR. End users do not require this package. It's still early days, but you can download java-otr version 0.1.0 (sig).
This is a plugin for Pidgin 2.x which implements Off-the-Record Messaging over any IM network Pidgin supports. The current version is 4.0.2. wd marvel repair tool 526
This software is no longer supported. Please use an IM client with native support for OTR. One Tuesday morning, The Vault started acting strange
This is a localhost proxy you can use with almost any AIM client in order to participate in Off-the-Record conversations. The current version is 0.3.1, which means it's still a long way from done. Read the README file carefully. Some things it's still missing:
You can find a git repository of the OTR source code, as well as the bugtracker, on the otr.im community development site:
If you use OTR software, you should join at least the otr-announce mailing list, and possibly otr-users (for users of OTR software) or otr-dev (for developers of OTR software) as well.

Here are some documents and papers describing OTR. The CodeCon presentation is quite useful to get started.
