Hi there,
http://www.omna.com/Yes/MWC/PRS-index.htm MWC offers a commercial
service to "recover" a lost Windows NT (all Versions) administrator
password at "Any level of the Password Complexity".
The whole thing takes four hours on four Pentium-200s and costs about
$US 4,500.
Comparing this against my experiences with Crack and crypt on UNIX-
platforms, I have to conclude that NT password encryption must be
ridiculous if this offer is true.
Does anybody have details ?
