if you are not going to be useful stop insulting my intelligence and get off the forums... Im sick of people like you, I have obviously googled it and I found an ecryption method or two most of which are not any help to me... if i have come to the forums it means google just is not working out

Why not post your question on:

http://stackoverflow.com

Or:

In fairness, you didn't provide too much information in your original post. If you have tried using Google, where did you encounter a problem?

Everyone on this site seems to be so up their own arse. I don't see the point replying with a negative comment when it would take the same length of time to post a positive one. Without people posting the community and effectively Neowin would be dead.

To the OP, take a look at DES encryption: http://www.mkyong.co...d-des-tutorial/.

Also, take a look at : http://www.java2s.co...ecurity/DES.htm

I have seen a number of your comments on this board and you come across as a complete 133test tosser. Every one of your posts I have seen seem to be negative, de-constructive and completely unhelpful. Why? Why do you use this board? Neowin markets itself as a friendly community. Not everyone is at the same level, some people are still learning and you should feel privileged that they are turning to Neowin for help rather than stack overflow and the likes (i also find it hilarious someone posted links to another site telling them to ask there). Inst that the bloody point?!

I've only just become a moderator so I'm not going to do anything, but if you have a problem with a user you should do it with a PM, not go off-topic in a thread.

I don't want to be part of this 'community'. Just delete my account thanks.

ok here is some more information maybe you can help me ... I have now encrypted the messaged yay.... BUT i want to use a key i have chosen rather then the keygenerator ... i am having some issues with this though can anyone please show me a way to encrypt using my own desired key as I wish to decrypt and my program requires the old corn chicken and fox so encryptions have to be correct and the same

We are sick of it he comes in alot of peoples threads and trashes them.... WHy don't you mods do something about it? If I could tell him off without getting a warning I would.

I agree with him however, A simple search for "JAVA AES128 Encryption" on google yields countless working results on how to encrypt strings. Also as mentioned, stackoverflow is a great asset, as is providing more information on what you're trying to accomplish. "HLP MEEZ!" usually does not yield useful answers from the community.

Here's a freebee. Why not tell us if you're just trying to encrypt, such as store in a database, or if you want to encrypt to transmit. One could use AES128, the other would use SSL. Nobody can tell you how to encrypt your strings if you don't tell us the context and how you're using encryption.

Here's your freebee, that took me 2 seconds on google.:

In case you're wondering how I found this so quickly,

• Open google. Type in "JAVA AES128 example"
  
• Click the VERY first result http://stackoverflow...ication-in-java
  
• Click the 2nd answer:http://www.javamex.c...symmetric.shtml

i will look at your links thanks for the help ... I am making a 2 way chat client (p2p) and i am encrypting the messages ... but before the chat can be secure I have to get an encryption code to both parties ....

so what i need to do is take and encryption key and encrypt it with a different key ... then send it to person B person B then encrypts the encrypted key with there encryption key... they then send it back ... person A (me) then removes the original encryption placed upon it leaving only person Bs encryption on the key.... person A is then meant to send it back to B so they can remove their encryption to see the shared encryption key so they can talk securely...

Why do you want to encrpyt the actual message? if you use SSL in your p2p app, then the entire communication is encrpyted, and nobody would be able to read the message. This saves you having to:

1.) Share encryption keys
2.) add code/time/complexity to en/decrypt messages each time they get sent.

Why re-invent security when you can easily use an SSL connection between your clients/apps to secure the ENTIRE connection. I asked this same question on stack overflow the other day, as I was thinking of using AES128 to encrypt user names being sent over http. I was later convinced by users to just go with an SSL connection for the entire session.
