rt> Hi,
rt>
rt> I'm using the latest (0.9.7) Crypto lib to encrypt a string of clear
rt> text, by using CBC mode with IV preset to 8 bytes of 0x00.
rt> When the encrypted text was decrypted back to plain text, the first 8
rt> bytes are bad text. I believe there are something to do with the IV
rt> parameter, or I call the functions incorrectly. Please help!!

You need to do this here:
DES_string_to_key(myIV, &cbIV);
rt> unsigned char output2[19];
rt> DES_ncbc_encrypt(output, output2, 24, &kSchedule, &cbIV, 0);
rt>
rt> char outHex[39];
rt> HubUtil::bytesToHex(output2, outHex, 19);
rt>
rt> cout << "Decrypted hex: " << outHex << endl;
rt>
rt> return 0;
You problem was that you didn't reinitialise the IV.
