That IS easy. The GUIDs (properly generated) are not predictable either.
From
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2012/05/23/10309199.aspx:
"Even the Version 4 GUID algorithm (which basically says "set the version to 4 and fill
everything else with random or pseudo-random numbers") is not guaranteed to be unpredictable,
because the algorithm does not specify the quality of the random number generator. The Wikipedia
article for GUID contains primary research which suggests that future and previous GUIDs can be
predicted based on knowledge of the random number generator state, since the generator is not
cryptographically strong."
WOW. So after WOPR decrypts my keys, it'll say "How about a nice game
of chess?" lol
