I've always like cfusion_encrypt/cfusion_decrypt because they're purely
alphanumeric - very beneficial when you're writing to a database.

If I remember correctly, the Encrypt routine will often place some bogus
characters on the end of the encrypted string.  These characters can be
stripped off, and it will decrypt fine.  But I don't remember the source
of this (think it was in the list bout a month ago), or any of the
allaire kb articles.

But, hopefully this points you in a useful direction.

I have an example where CFusion_Encrypt/Decrypt produces inconsistent
results :-)
