I am not sure about bit-strength (I'll have to do a look into the code)
Pocket PC:
Microsoft Base Cryptographic Provider v1.0
42-bit
Desktop:
Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0
128-bit
So you cannot exchange files between Pocket PC and Desktop version (e.g. Encrypt on Desktop and decrypt on Pocket PC will not work even providing the correct password).
All versions of CCrryyppttoo weren't updated for a long time.
To increase security (e.g. against brute-force attacks) use longer passwords containing upper+lower case characters, numbers, special signs.
If I have more time to do I'll develop a newer versions with more and better Cryptographic Providers.
