Not if you do not live in the US of A. There is a set of DES
programs/subroutines on a machine in Finland which are publicly available.
Try ftping to 128.59.64.40 which also has a copy of this software for
public distribution (this is where I came by my copy).   I do have the
address of the machine in finland somewhere, if 128.59.64.40 does not have
it any longer.
