"The Zodiac Killer was a serial killer who operated in Northern California for ten months in the late 1960s. He coined his name in a series of taunting letters he sent to the press until 1974. His letters included four cryptograms or ciphers, three of which have yet to be solved.
The Zodiac murdered five known victims in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Francisco between December 1968 and October 1969. Four men and three women between the ages of 16 and 29 were targeted. Others have been inconclusively proposed to be Zodiac victims as well.
The killer's identity remains unknown. The San Francisco Police Department marked the case "inactive" in April 2004 and reopened it some time before March 2007. The case remains open in other jurisdictions as well." - Wikipedia

Like Tammy said, it's a case that has gone cold..whether or not someone would be able to decrypt the messages in the future, it might not do much good since the killer might be long gone from this world..(40 years..the killer must've been in his 60's now or older). -

It's probably going to end up being a case like the Dahlia, where there is all this folklore surrounding the case, history channel docs, friends and family who remember the strangest behavior, but never "really" knew the victims, lame movies, and such but will ultimately never be solved. -

I think if they haven't figured it out by now they wont. He sent notes to the police and they still couldn't figure it out. If by some chance the do figure it out in the next 20 years it will be too late as by then he will most likely alredy be dead.

It depends if he wants credit for it or not.
