I think the reason you are getting problems may be because some of the
chracters generated by the Encrypt function may be ascii characters which
are not URL safe and may need URL encoding
there is another thread somewhere which discussses this. Also be warned the
functions Craig told you about, which i believe do not suffer from the same
problem are actually undocumented and unofficial functions. Bear this in
mind when you use them as they are NOT guaranteed to be supported in future
versions/releases/service packs etc.
