Hi Les, I've seen similar behavior most typically when I'm also urlencoding the the encrypted value. What I figured out was happening is that if the encrypted value contained a space, when urlencodedformat() was run on it, the space would get converted to "%20" as expected. However, when it was decoded, the spaces were converted to "+" instead of a space, then the decrypt would not function properly. In my situation that either resulted in strange characters being added or usually resulting in a null pointer reference error. Also, this was under CFMX6.1.
