Front End User - Cookie - Remember me on this computer problem

If I set the preference to "Use cookies to remember login details:".  You then have another checkbox when the user logs in "Remember me on this computer"

It does appear to be setting a cookie, but not for any expiration time I set for session timeout (as mentioned here: http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 365.0.html), instead it sets the expiration data a year ahead.

I found this line in FrontEndUsers.module.php
$expires = time()+(3600*24*365);

It doesn't appear to be grabbing any expiration value from the database.

I also get these error messages when I check that check box:
Warning: mcrypt_ecb() [function.mcrypt-ecb]: Size of key is too large for this algorithm in /path/to/my/cmsms/install/modules/FrontEndUsers/FrontEndUsers.module.php on line 2023

Warning: mcrypt_ecb() [function.mcrypt-ecb]: Attempt to use an empty IV, which is NOT recommend in /path/to/my/cmsms/install/modules/FrontEndUsers/FrontEndUsers.module.php on line 2023
Upon digging into that I found that the mcrypt_ecb() function is deprecated, http://theserverpages.com/php/manual/en ... b.php  But I wasn't able to figure out what to change to make it work with mcrypt_generic or mdecrypt_generic or even mcrypt_encrypt or mcrypt_decrypt

Let me know if this is a bug that needs to be filed or if you need any other information.

PHP version = 5.2.4 apache2handler
Webserver = Apache/2.2.4
Database = mysql 4.1.20-log, lock.system=flock
Operating system = FreeBSD servername.host.com.com 6.2-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p1 #1

No new word.  I haven't had any time to look into this further since then, nor have I filed a bug report if that's needed.

Captcha has nothing to do with this.

lol no i was not meaning that it had to do with captcha, I think i may have sometime to put in on this today but... I'd think it best if you did put in a bug report... I'm not sure how to do that myself or i would.  If i come up with something i'll post it up for you and others... Have a great day.
