I meant to mention something about DES 56 bit key length... Anyway it 
has been bragged about by some crackers that some weak uses (less than 
40 bit key lengths) can be cracked in under ten minutes by someone that 
knows how to attack it. I guess a few words regarding use might be more 
to the point. Even if your secret source code in your commercial 
application were cracked there are better protection resources, at 
least in America that is. The Millennial Copyright Act offers legal 
protection for anyone that circumnavigates the intended protection 
built into a software application that was intended not to be copied or 
that its source code was designed not to be freely distributable. It's 
a crime, not just a civil matter that would be enforced in a lawsuit.

My need for encryption is to protect content like copyrighted 
intellectual property rights. I feel that the password protected stacks 
in RunRev is adequate for what it does.
