Absolutely. Figuring out the hint is encouraged. Cracking the manual is just plain wrong.
From a technical perspective, I find threads like this interesting. I like discussions about how much computing horsepower is neneded for certain tasks, and how long they will take.
But from an ethical and moral perspective, we should not ever attempt to crack something of value that we do not own rights to.
What you should do is encrypt your own file, and then try to crack that.
