Do you mean it's worthless?  Well, I saw a few like this around ... it was
created with some C-KT package (not sure ... I think it's a hack of PGP);
they claimed much larger keys could be generated (I once tried, but it took
far too long).  There was also another program ... pgp2.6a or so, which had
similar claims.  I recall the person's name is Peter Wilson ...

I thought the reason behind not creating longer keys was that they not only
take long in being generated, but they too take long on
encryption/decryption processes.  But they could be generated.
