I believe you do.  However, the RSA patent expires soon.  Not sure what
affect that will have on licensing.  It's probably best if you send an
e-mail to the Crypto++ list or to RSA themselves.

Subject: RC4 license



I am planning to commercially release a program that uses SFL. Do I have to 
buy a license from RSA to use the RC2 and RC4 algorithms found in the 
crypto32 library?
