What is RC5?

[PHATJACK]

Hey all, I have heard people talking about this thing called "RC5". Excuse my stupidity, but just what in the hell is RC5? Thanks.

Read about RSA's RC5-64 block cipher challenge here. Check out distributed.net's distributed processing client here.

If you're a geek you can read the original RC5 RFC from RSA here.

[edit]Man, you would think I could spell cipher....[/edit]

RC5 was made to point you toward SETI@home!!

I've run both (RC5 & SETI), I quit the RC5 girl & now I'm hooked back up with seti!!.
