Polter:
I went to the link you posted, regarding the "Vigenere table". I found it very interesting! The analysis presented there amazed me! Some folk are simply very imaginative and analytic, all at the same time. I wonder, if you take a text, encrypt it using a password, then take that encrypted text and submit it to a new encryption password and encryption, would the resultant text still be susceptible to analysis? If so, is there any number of repeats of this that will result in an undecryptable text?
