Hash Decypter

Hey pplz any of you know of a GOOD hash decypter? I have JTR but i cant get it to work every time i click on the "john-286" Icon it flashes a CMD looking box on the screen for about 1-2 secs and then it goes away?!?!?!?!?!?

You're just using it the wrong way, take a look at this http://www.dalhart.com/prof_scott/cs652/jacktheripper.ppt that was what I used to start using JTR (even though they stuffed the name up) Just remember, in their tutorial they say to type john in the command prompt when you are in the directory of JTR. DONT. You have to substitute john for the name of the exe file, in your case john-286, in my case john-386. Cracking hashes takes a while unless you have a wordlist, so I suggest you get a good one, or several that you can put together. Other than that, the tutorial is pretty straight forwards. If you can't get it at first, keep at it. JTR is the best out there.

Hope that helps :D

"Decrypter"? o.O lol

the way u run programs that do that is create a cmd file and run it from that N.B. i hope im not bein 2 harsh by sayin this but u really need 2 build up a better background knowledge of computers as from what i know ur trying to run without learning to walk

He may of meant making a batch file for example

@cd john1701/Run @john-386 -wordlist:mylist.lst encrypted.txt @PAUSE

So that you only have to change encrypted.txt (which you have to anyway), and then you can just dbl click the .bat file to do a dictionary attack

If you're looking to crack a hash in another format than DES you should try using Cain's built-in hash cracker.

Yeah.. I just recommended it since he asked for other hashcrackers in the first post :)
