Re: Encryption

as nodrog said, with encryption its just a matter of processor operations ( and thus time ) before it can be broken
what the more secure variations do is make it require so many operations that it takes a ludicrously long time to break. ( in the order of decades iirc )
as for the one you posted. 128bit isnt -brilliant- but it should be sufficient.
Personally i would be looking for an AES/Blowfish/PGP based crypto with 256 or 512 bit key lengths. the longer the better
