I really don't know much about MC's encryption either.  The program I posted 
relies on a keyFile with the same list of random numbers being stored on each 
computer.  Unless someone else has access to that file or is somehow reading 
the electronic emissions from your keyboard, the encryption is in the form of 
a one-time pad which is the most secure form of encryption possible.  As long 
as the keyFile is used only once and then discarded or replaced, the code is 
unbreakable.
