Yes, but don't you have to use an encryption key to perform that encryption? Thats what I thought as these functions are disabled by default if you do not have encryption enabled on your ARS server... Joe

Depending on how good your nephew is in breaking into security, the 128 bit key encryption is pretty good. I haven't used it but its the maximum security allowed to be used in the US..

Does anyone use it? Does anyone know: - what algorithm is used? - what size limitations are there on the key? - on a scale of 1 (my nephew could crack it in an afternoon) to 10 (a supercomputer would take a year), how secure is it? -Aaron * Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have a burning question?
