crypt.KeyLength := 64;

// encryption algorithm's block size.  DES has a block
// size of 8 bytes, so encrypted output is always
// a multiple of 8.

// encryption, and the input for decryption.
// It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".

// An initialization vector is required if using CBC or CFB modes.
// ECB mode does not use an IV.
// The length of the IV is equal to the algorithm's block size.
// It is NOT equal to the length of the key.

// Encrypt a string...
// The input string is 44 ANSI characters (i.e. 44 bytes), so
// the output should be 48 bytes (a multiple of 8).
// Because the output is a hex string, it should
// be 96 characters long (2 chars per byte).
