Ophcrack Live CD


The ophcrack LiveCD contains a full linux system (SLAX), ophcrack for linux and rainbow tables for alphanumerical passwords.

The liveCD cracks passwords automatically, no installation necessary, no admin passwort necessary (as long as you can boot from cd).

Honestly... Ophcrack is creepy. It cracked my (somewhat mediocre) 13-character alphanumeric password in about 5 minutes. Like most powerful tools, Ophcrack can be used for the forces of both good and evil, but for anyone who's been locked out of their Windows user account because you can't remember your password, Ophcrack can be very good.
