Does anyone know any sites where ppl put their ciphers up to test? Ie post some encrypted text and let ppl "crack" the code? There should be one...

Heya. I've recently read Digital Fortress, and I were wondering if it really is possible to create a computer such as TRNSLTR able to crack every code using 'brute force'? I am under the impression that it would require enormous processing powers. Would it be possible, and is it feasible that it has already happened? Figured maybe one of you cryptographers (or hackers) could help me find out?

Well I'm no expert, I'm not a programmer but I think a computer such as TRANSLTR can't be built on the simple basis that it's just too large to be debugged properly.
