For my figures its just that 1day for very simple encryptions (like still life) to 4+ years for the harder ones (perhaps splinter cell ct). Lets give an example if you try to break a zip file of a 12 letter password it could take more then 1 year with a average pc 3.0 ghz 1 gig ram, now take a encryption key that could be huge 20+ chars it can take a very long time or forever if evey file is encrypted differnt.
Some not all starforce games have trigger points (most are online checks) but so far this is only seen in codemasters games.

Please prove me wrong if you can.
