Not that I will use it, but came across it, for people who don't know what it is, apparantly its what hackers sometimes use and the program tries every word/number combination possible till the password is cracked...sounds pretty real to me anyone know anything else about it?

Yeah, it could take days or even weeks to get any passwords with a decent wordlist unless people use something like "password" as their password, rainbow tables are better because they try every combination of words and alot of sites use capcha or have things like vbulletin does, which makes most of the good old crackers useless against those sites

Yeah I have, not spreading. You can find stupid things like a 17k username list for sites like Myspace, Facebook and Bebo. Then you take another list of every single word in the dictionary or common passwords. You just load it up into whatever bruter you have and leave it running. It can take hours, days to find a single one. Usually people are smart enough to not use obvious passwords but then again.

It generally works with people who have passwords like "hello1" or actual words as people get the "word list" from dictionaries. That's one of the reasons you're always advised to have passwords that make sense to you such as "M4TtH3w89FeNCe" or whatever, lol.

if it's a link from a youtube video, or google search, it's most likely a virus, and if you have opened it you will most likely be trojaned/keylogged as we speak...
i'd scan my pc if i were you.

Interesting, I have an email with so many emails I need and because I didnt go on the email for about 3 months I forgot the password so it would be handy to get that password back...
So what do I do, any safe free downloadable ones I could download (bruters)? then how do I get and upload username lists or the dictionary list or w.e. you do?

be careful when using stuff like this, it could come back and bite you on the ass, as it could be a keylogger/trojan that will infect you and lead to you being hacked.

Most files that you will find will most likly have a keylogger or a backdoor.
The best thing to do is make your own. But I do know a site that you can find some programs. Some of them are safe, I don't know which though. So if you would like to know the site add me to msn at

Yeah I agree but most when you just search "passoword bruter" in google are infected with trojans/loggers...

You could try here (http://www.aciidforums.com/). Personally, I've not seen anything for msn but I haven't really looked. Just use the search tool if your stuck. If you want a .txt file with dictionary words, I'll upload it for you. Alternatively, you could use the MSN revert link but... I don't think I can give that out here.
