    I am trying to download and use ophcrack to find a windows login password and when i download it the file is zipped. I want to burn the program with iso burner but when I unzip the download with winrar it unzips it into several different files. i right click winrar and unzip to a specified place but it seperates the files into many. I don't know how to unzip it to show the ophcrack program that I need to burn with the iso burner, I m new to this forum and didn't know where to post this. Sorry if this is the wrong place.....

    Hi, melearning. Welcome to Major Geeks. :)

    As plodr stated go to the live CD section on sourceforge to get the ISO to burn to CD.

    Have you ever worked with Ophcrack? I tried a couple of times on my own computer even though I'm not locked out. I expected it to reveal my (known) passwords. I am unable to use it correctly. It uses "tables", some of which are quite large (several gigabytes) and I haven't been able to download/install even the "basic" tables.

    If you are successful, could you give a brief synapsis on how you succeeded?

    Sorry I could not post a link, work blocks 'hacking' tools.
    Anyway, if you download the XP or Vista/7 they have basic tables and you just burn the ISO and boot.
    It has basic hash files.
    If you have trouble look at these tutorials http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=ophcrack

    Hi all

    All I can say is these types of threads are a judgement point in which we cannot verify the ownership of a PC, the OP maybe really legit and maybe not. SO at times threads like this may well be closed.

    Not closing this one yet but do be careful of comments.
