I just threw together an IDEA module (using ASCOM's code).
[See, I told you it was simple to do with the modular loop driver.]

Note: Both CAST-128 and IDEA use ecb. I hope to change this to cbc
eventually. The ecb IDEA is incompatible with cbc IDEA, so it won't
work on anything encrypted with the old (non-modular) loop driver.

Again, send me E-Mail if you'd like to test it out. I'm almost finished
with this puppy, and I'd like to get it out the door soon, but I really
need some feedback first.
