You are right about the padding, I am unsure as to how BlowfishSimple does it.

It doesn't you do it in the Encrypt function you presented.

The encrypt subroutine I pasted above was from from the BlowfishSimple class. It comes as part of the BlowfishNET download. I was comparing the libraries to see how the two encrypt and decrypt and I believe they pad differently. That is the reason I pasted the subroutine here. I thought I had mentioned it.

As far using the BlowfishSimple library/class, it pretty much boils down to making the following calls: 

bfs = new BlowfishSimple(key);
enc = bfs.Encrypt(plaintext);

So, as you can see that is why I keep querying about how the padding is done in BlowfishSimple, because that is what I thought is different, but then, I am not sure.

Thank you for your help.
