Anyone know what steps I should take to get cryptography lib?

[whh]

I downloaded IPP lib but found it does not have cryptography lib which is what I want. I then followed the website and requested the lib and someone in Intel perf lib group contacted my via email. But the thing is they kept asking me to register at: https://registrationcenter.intel.com, which I already did for my evaluation license. They also asked me if I have an account at https://premier.intel.com, which surely I don't, and I don't know where to register since I only want an evaluation copy at this moment.

Now things seem to be in a deadlock and Intel guys kept asking me the same stupid question which I have already answered multiple times. The whole thing about downloading an evaluation copy of cryptography is so confusing and frustrating. Intel really should make this whole thing much simpler! And I am going to abandon Intel if I still can not get a straight answer from them.

Anyone know what exact steps should I take to get the lib?

These steps/links really don't help - I already did all of the above. None of the Intel correspondence gave me any instruction on how to download the library. They either kept asking me to resigter (which I did multiple times) or sending me the evaluation license key (which I have already).

I was told I need a premier support account to download the lib, which I don't have. And if I tried to login on premier support webpage, I always get permission denied message.

None comes strightforward on what exactly I should do. It has already been several weeks since I started requesting the lib, but no progress has been made.

It is really a pity that Intel has such a confusing mechanism (or policy, or support structure) for such a simple download task. This is really driving potential customer away.

Dear Customer,
Sorry about this inconvenience, we are updating the content on the crypto web site and hopefully it will clarify the steps how you can get the pacakge.

In the meantime, please let me know what email address you used for the request, so I can check if your request has been approved or not..

Thanks,
