I'm developing a web application and I'm trying to find a simple way to
encrypt and decrypt a password field. A one-way encryption won't work since
I need to be able to e-mail users their password if they loose it.

I have searched MSDN and there are obviously many VERY complex encryption
services available - I don't need certificates or PKI, Kerberos, etc - just
something simple:

* for example:

key=(value I set)

scrambledpassword = simpleencrypt(inpassword,key)

unscrambledpassword = simpledecrtyp(scrambledpassword,key)

Any help would be GREATLY apprecaited!

Thanks,

Fred
