freelip or MIRACL are both pretty good. If you use this for a comercial
product you'll have to contact AT&T because it isn't "free"lip then :-)

freelip can be found via anon ftp
flash.bellcore.com/usr/spool/ftp/pub/lenstra along with docs.
also try ftp://ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/math/freelip

LiDIA can be found at
ftp://ftp.informatik.th-darmstadt.de/pub/TI/systems/LiDIA/LC-1.4.x

MIRACL can be found at ftp://ftp.compapp.dcu.ie/pub/crypto

Have fun!

Patience, persistence, truth,
