The correct key will expose the literal string "The unknown message is: ". It will also expose the rest of the message which is unknown except to just a few employees of RSA Security. I'm sure that distributed.net took this little fact into account when coding up their software. I know I would. -- "Be sure to work 8 hours and sleep 8 hours, but not the same 8 hours!"
