[Cryptography] Better Version of Triple-DES

Might be wrong, but I think this would be a better version of TripleDES,
Have the first encryption be DES in CTR mode, the second encryption being
the data, and the third encryption being CTR mode again. Since CTR mode is
a stream cipher, it would be DES-X style key-whitening, except the full
168-bit key would be usable.
