   Unless you have a very sophisticated sniffer.   
      
   Back in the 70's when I was contracting at Eglin AFB, we were audited   
   by a branch of a non-disclosed government security agency.  They were   
   trying to see whether or not they could detect data going through a   
   cable (1.5 inches in diameter) that connected a large disk file to a   
   CDC 6600 mainframe.  We were surprised to learn they could detect the   
   movement of data (whether data or control, we don't know) through the   
   cable, but were unable to  actually interpret the data as there were   
   streams of data being sent and received by more than 40 different   
   programs multiprogramming at one time.  They never tried to detect and   
   interpret a stream for a single progam.  And we didn't think they would   
   be able to do so, as there are both control ad dta signals running thru   
   the cable simultaneously.   
      
   SO I think you are safe unless someone knows something that I don't.
