Vlad's Decryptonomicon software
Plural: bits of Vlad's Decryptonomicon software
The picture on the cover of this box shows some sort of undead creature leaving a graveyard. The implication being, I suppose, that the software is good for de-crypting things. In a most painful (and pun-ful) fashion. Or they're marketing themselves to the undead. Hard to say, really.
