I'm investigating encryption algorithms - can someone give me a quick rundown of the differences between Rijndael and AES?

This link should help explain it: http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2006/10/09/The-Differences-Between-Rijndael-and-AES.aspx

AES is a United States federal standard, FIPS 197, which is a subset of Rijndael:
AES has a fixed block size of 128 bits and a key size of 128, 192, or 256 bits, whereas Rijndael can be specified with block and key sizes in any multiple of 32 bits, with a minimum of 128 bits and a maximum of 256 bits.
From Advanced Encryption Standard on Wikipedia.
dirkgently : Not just any subset, but a FIPS compliant one.
