    Hello Rastan,

    Rastan>>hmmmm..... thanks again darrel. i guess microchip dont want people to know their tricks very interesting.<<

    Darrels correct. Anything can be cracked. Mico's down to anything. Sometimes it may be critical to make sure its a little more secure than the average security, so you work extra hard to pay off. Look at the intel chip in your computer. Crack that baby, and what do you have? (ALOT!!! except when you try and use it for something other than yourself...then you have copywrite, EUA, and all other licenses you broke. You will also be sued too <g>. Thus, encryption is a variable that *you* control. the real questions comes down to the following:

    1. How valuable is it?
    2. How much time do you spend?
    3. What are the odds you find that .00001 person who wants it that bad?
