Hehe, yes, I guess that's part of the fun of it.  The player can try
to break the code or can "cheat" by looking at the guardian code and
deciphering it.  They can also skip the module by obtaining the
password from myself or another player if they really want to as
well.  I will look into MD5 and perhaps the other encryption modules
for future work.  Mission 2 is nearly complete now, in which the
player modifies a partially complete spy script to break a password
held in the guardian script.  It is kind of fun to write these
Missions!
