Here's an example of two sets of letters:

You type:  abcd
Transmits: VUTS

You type:  ABCD
Transmits: vuts

ROT13 encoding - like the caesar cipher (it may be the caesar
cipher?). Take
your character and rotate 13 characters.

Actually it's not rot13 as the distances between letter are varible. It's
even simpler ... it's a straight xor of every character with 0x37 ('7'
ascii). Is there any '7' in any password (key) that you may have specified?

Dave.
