Hi Wirt :),
     2 Questions:
                  1)  Does this estimate take into account the system
allowing only 3 password attempts before having to retype the "Hello"?

                  2)  Does this take into account all the Y100k and Y250k
problems? hehehe :)

           I think I need some coffee now :)

Actually, 398,448.86 years (or more precisely: 145,533,447 days, 14 hours,
33
minutes and 48 seconds, at the rate of one password per six seconds,
