[PHP] problem with mcrypt_generic_deinit function

[php]

I have a problem with this function.
When I execute via web the script: 


<?php
  $llave = "esta es una llave secre";
  $entrada = "Encontr�monos a las 9 en punto en el lugar secre."; 

  $td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'ofb', '');
  $iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_RAND);
  mcrypt_generic_init($td, $llave, $iv);
  $datos_cifrados = mcrypt_generic($td, $entrada);
  echo $datos_cifrados;
  mcrypt_generic_deinit($td);
  mcrypt_module_close($td);
?> 

I get the following: 

3`Z�eYS lyZ�W�.c��&#190;��Y���" &#8221;4&#189;�Ur-̿�&#732;�h 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mcrypt_generic_deinit() in 
/path/script.php on line 10 

The first line on the www client is the third line on the script: 
"Encontr�monos a las 9 en punto en el lugar secre", but encrypted. 

If I comment line 10 the script run succesfully. 

The server is a debian woody with apache and php-mcrypt module. 

The function mcrypt_generic_deinit is necessary or is posible to use mcrypt 
without this function? 

Could somebody help me with this. 

Thanks in advance.
