MUSAC? Is that the Massey Unversity School Admistration thing?

I remember using it at High School (I was writing an automatic
school-report printing program for the school and needed the info from
the package.) It had this option where, if you forgot your password, you
could type in "unkown" and get back a list of numbers, which you could
send up to Massey and they would send you your password back. I typed in
unknown once, for my known password, and figured out the encryption code
in a couple hours one Friday after school. My first real crack! I was so
buzzed! I can still sort-of-remember it if you ever forget your
password, although hopefully they will have changed the encoding scheme
by now. (This was 1990/1991 BTW).

I must stress: I only did it for the challenge, and did not use the
information in any illegal/immoral way.

Cheers,
Carl.
