It's been established that the encryption in Netscape is 40 bit
RC4, not 40 bit RSA, but if anyone's still looking for the quadratic
sieve code, look on Derek Atkins' ftp site toxicwaste.mit.edu. Arjen
Lenstra may have made the large number field sieve (LNFS) code available
somewhere, but I'm not sure.
