Using VB6 to develope a program that uses Window Crypto functionality.
Do all Windows, foreign and domestic have that functionality? What are the limitations? I do not believe that there is anything added to the Packager that would provide Crypto if Windows does not already have it. Is that correct?

I believe the difference comes in the exact algorithm used and the strength of it. For example, I know that a few years ago, you could only get the 128 bit encryption in IE if you lived in the U.S. and maybe Canada or Mexico. I can only guess that had *something* to do with the Crypto APIs in Windows and updating the DLLs. You might be better off asking this in a different newsgroup as it's not really a VB-specific question. It's more of a Windows question. -- Mike
