there are several modules : Crypt::Blowfish Dave Paris `my $cipher = new Crypt::Blowfish $key; my $ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);` [download] Crypt::Blowfish_PP Matthew Byng-Maddick `$blowfish=new Crypt::Blowfish_PP($key);` [download] Now as a general rule your key, should be as random as possible... UPDATE : It's not really related to your question but you should give a try to RIJNDAEL the new AES... Several modules exists, and it's a really good algo.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
