It'll take some time, but it's possible. A simple brute-force attack will do 
the job. And "some time" depends VERY much on the hardware the cracker owns. It 
may be enough to be secure against your friends, but not against a "real" 
cracker.

PS: Sorry for the dupes. I had a small bug in the gateway program.
