Hello, I'd first like to thank everyone who responded to my RainbowCrack questions, great suggestions and helped greatly! I gott'a say, this list has given the best responses to a question than any other list I've subscribed!! Would someone please remind me of the name of the program used to take a list of words and hashes them into a pre-computed hash table to be used in one of the password crackers like LC5 or one of the others? I've seen/have many of the hash creators that will build a table from a row of characters but I need to use it for a list of words. I really can not remember the name. Thanks again!

Most of the time it's pirated stuff, but why not use the best you can get/steal when you're a criminal? I'd say the "others" should be informed of both risks, and need to be reminded that "most likely" does not really mean anything. I wouldn't step on a plane that would "most likely" not crash..

And that for a true benchmark, maybe use the products that a malicious
attacker would use. Most of which will probably be open source or free at the least. That is assuming that they are not writing their own software. ;)
I guess I'm asking, how do you justify "not" using free products? You can buy pre-computated rainbow tables, but there are different
rainbowtables for different types of hashes. Example: ntlm, ntlmv2, sha1 , md5, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
