Perhaps this little program will help you diagnose the problem.

This information is many years out of date.

Since 2000, 'Any crypto of any key length can be exported [from the USA]
under a license exception, after a technical review, to non-government
end users in any country except the seven "terrorist countries". Exports
to governments can be approved under a license.'

Since 2002, 'Mass-market crypto with key length exceeding 64 bits can
now be exported after a 30-day review by the Bureau of Industry and
Security.'
