It's legal in the US, but other countries have export restrictions, too. They're usually pretty hard to find out about, especially considering that the people who passed the laws don't have a clue what the law means. Your best place to check is the Crypto Law Survey at http://cwis.kub.nl/~frw/people/koops/lawsurvy.htm The disclamer states that the findings may not be "exaustive or legally reliable," and given the opacity of crypto laws, you'd better belive it. That said, it is an excellent resource. cypherpunks newbie patrol, Jer "standing on top of the world/ never knew how you never could/ never knew why you never could live/ innocent life that everyone did" -Wormhole -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQB1AwUBMwQOAckz/YzIV3P5AQFUJgL+KhGiQ/N6Nrt95d4UhF+MFUtTxsbWUTDx 5cKtCz2HEG4TqoHQJ0vt/njOMqzBdNgVma9vqC/cWoczOgRXHEmcPuXN0Zd2fOKT KxMOtZzLwvCUSJEYY8q9PZ5lY4NIDcyQ =W32O -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
