spnlhmTpnxYQ.

How hard can it possibly be!?!? Ima tell you ITS VERY HARD lol. The MD5 encryption was easy because I had a AOL bot resource. But this spnlhmTpnxYQ. DES encryption(think its DES im almost positive) is hard to un encrypt…i cant use John The Ripper because I have MAC OS X so I can't download JTR and I don't see a place online at the JTR site when I can just hack spnlhmTpnxYQ. without d/l anything.

if you cant use JTR what i would do is make a really simple DES table on a web server and just check it with that.

just use a really small dicrionaty file, that should do it.

ive tried cracking for over 2 hours both in brute force and with the cain list, but i still havent cracked it. i tried forcing the lm format, but it wouldnt load the hash…does anyone know if its possibl that i may have less trouble if i ran jtr on my ubuntu?

just use the recent article (about JTR):

http://www.hellboundhackers.org/readarticle.php?article_id=470 or, an earlier one (read its comments for more help): http://www.hellboundhackers.org/articlecomments.php?article_id=416

With the knowledge from these 2 articles and the right worldlist, I say you can crack it well under a 1 min. My wicked! and sexy laptop did in 30 sec.

Avoid bruteforcing – use a dictionary attack, its more effective and faster.

okay so i need to use a wordlist, but which one? there are hundreds out there…

I thought you could just use the wordlist that came with JTR, correct me if I am wrong though…

Use any word list as long as its big. The infamous Argon one is pretty good

sadly our big assed argon failed to crack it lol searches for another biggy

make sure oyu unzipped it I had that prblem :)

am I just wasting my time with the regular JTR wordlist? I have had it running for 5 hours and nothing.

Yeah, you are. Go find a dictionary wordlist - with actual words. This one had me stumped for ever. I ran JTR's list on it for 2 days before giving up. Finally, on advice, I used a dictionary list - with common everyday words in it and cracked it in 10 seconds. Which is, after spending an entire week using the argon lists - and the john list, really f***ing annoying. Just do a google search for dictionary lists. Good luck.

hint: it is a very commonly used word that is not in most dictionaries :P

i think I used jtr with C&A wordlist and other ones I found over net… but I really can't remember everything what I did…

Magicbus: You cracked for 5 hours with a wordlist?! OMFG… :p

i saved that hash in a txt file called password.txt. the file is just the hash, nothing else. i tried loading it into cain but it comes up with an error. any help?

lol yeahh, I still haven't gotten this yet either. I thought spyware said it was crackable through the wordlist JTR provides. idkk. lol :whoa:

You have to type it like user:hash so write something like

hbh:spnlhmTpnxYQ.

and save it in a text file called other10.txt Then run

john-mmx.exe –wordlist=FILE –session=hbhwl other10.txt

just replace FILE with your wordlist. If you need to bruteforce (can take long time, but always gets it), run this instead:

john-mmx.exe –session=hbhbf other10.txt

heres what i did: i saved a txt document called password. all that was in it was: hbh:spnlhmTpnxYQ.

i opened cain, went to cracker, clicked lm, and pushed the +. i clicked browse, and opened password.txt, but it comes up as blank. please help.

Can't use cain on a des hash, Use jtr;)

well i was trying for many hours,

and now i am beating my head when i got the answer finally.

running the mdcrack for the md5 one.

don't necropost. This was almost 2 YEARS old

lol. that would get you ban so fast. Why would you dig up a really old topic?

Bro really? A 3 year topic for a pointless post.
