I'll participate when I can download something, type make, run it, and forget about it.
My feelings EXACTLY. And the same reasoning behind my machine not being put to work on these DES/RC4 cracking projects. Instead it spends its off-cycles factoring Merseinne primes - why? Because it's the only charity I can donate my spare CPU power to, WITHOUT having to sign forms and other beauracratic garbage.
For win32, just get deskr or brydDES. (For North Americans, a deskr beta is available via http://www.csn.net/~mpj/crypto.htm; BrydDES is available internationally at http://inet.uni-c.dk/~svolaf/des.htm). For the record, Peter Trei is still unsure if my export controlled site is totally EAR-compliant, so don't blame him if you don't think it is. I, however, believe that it is fully compliant, knowing full well the ease of bypassing it. Please don't -- it only eggs the feds into making the law worse. Get BrydDES if you are outside of North America. It is faster, anyway, so far, although Peter is gaining speed as he tweaks his code.
