U forgot the password or dont know it?

If u know what "things" are used in the pw. (exp: letters nummer symbols) you can try to recover it. Another important thing is to know how long the pw was nearly. otherwise bruteforcing the pw will take way to much time.

I removed the links because it was obviously a cracked game....you should read the forum rules zigo, breaking the rules repeatedly will cause a ban.




simply enter "rar" in the search-form of the download-section and check the results... :|

I have a rar password cracker and I think I know where you could get one too. Of course if that password is any where close to a 60 bit strong password it might take forever to crack it.

You should really take care to save the passwords what every they are as that will take far less time on your behalf. That is the easiest thing that you could do. Just open the notepad put the password in and save it as the content of the rar file. As easy as that.

Lyecdevf, an 8 letter password isn't that secure. I depends on if it's got only letters, numbers, other characters, etc. If you're wondering what i'm talking about, 8*8 = 64 (close to 60) 1 BYTE = 8 bits; 60 bit password = 7-8 letters. Am i wrong?

the strongest password i own is just a 100 character password, capitol and regular letters, numbers, and other stuff like $%&"#@£§€










P.S: the total size of the encription is 612 bits....knowing that a bank uses 126 bits encription.....whel does anyone want the hash for that?
