Anybody care to venture a guess as to which of the following is correct when you are referring to a step that "undoes" encryption:

- Decrypting
- Unencrypting
- De-encrypting

I'm not finding it in my style guides and I'm getting hits on each when I go out to the web...although "decrypting" appears to be the frontrunner if I were to judge the legitimacy of some of the hits I'm getting.
