when using _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks();
just before the return 0;
in visual studio i get this:

Code:

Detected memory leaks!

Dumping objects ->

{124} normal block at 0x005F44C8, 8 bytes long.

 Data: <P #     > 50 FC 23 00 00 00 00 00 

Object dump complete.

(of course the address and the data change every time i run the program).

It seems to me weird too there is a leak. Dunno what to do =/ Help would be appreciated Thanks~

That is because your cipher has not gone out of scope yet. Introduce a local scope and you will see.

Oh WOW... I'm so stupid.. Thank you so much!! ... I could on it few more hours without seeing it.
