Hello, I have been playing with the mycrypt function. Im having a bit of trouble understanding why it is important to use a vector IV. I was wandering if there is a reasonably powerful encryption algorithm. That uses a key only instead of getting the block size and using a IV. I basically want to know if there is something simple out there that will do the same job. Kind Regards, Daniel
