/*
The data is encrypted in CFB mode, with a CFB shift size equal to the
   cipher's block size.  The Initial Vector (IV) is specified as all
   zeros.  Instead of using an IV, OpenPGP prefixes a 10-octet string to
   the data before it is encrypted.  The first eight octets are random,
   and the 9th and 10th octets are copies of the 7th and 8th octets,
   respectively. After encrypting the first 10 octets, the CFB state is
   resynchronized if the cipher block size is 8 octets or less.  The
   last 8 octets of ciphertext are passed through the cipher and the
   block boundary is reset.

If a plaintext is encrpted with CAST using this CFB mode,
and i know the session key and the ciphertext, 
how can I decrpyt it, i have tried many times, but still can't 
recovery the plaintext.
In fact, i havn't grasped the meaning of the above paragraph.

any help
thanks
best regards
