Well, I'd say ARCFOUR has been discussed a hell of a lot more than what this thread ever mustered up. I also submit that implementing ARCFOUR or studying p3.py would be a hell of a lot more educational than posting a lousy algorithm, calling it unbreakable, and responding to criticisms with "I don't understand so you must be wrong." Education is a process one must engage in. You don't just step in it. -- Robert Kern [EMAIL PROTECTED] "In the fields of hell where the grass grows high Are the graves of dreams allowed to die." -- Richard Harter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
