Well, depends on how your passwords are encrypted ! LC5, Cain & Abel, ... worked for me, but just with passwords which 
were not encrypted with syskey. In this latter case, I don't know which tool can crack the passwords ...

As a matter of interest, which is better for cracking Windows password files? LC4, LC5 or John? Do any one of these do 
a better job with say dictionary attacks versuses attacks on strong passwords?
