    Oh Shit I stumbled accross a working password cracker

    Skip to the end if you don't feel like reading. Most of this is just me rambling anyway but the last part is relevant

    Earlier tonight I was checking out Fagex.net and I somehow stumbled accross a link that brought me to another website, and that website gave me a link to another, and anyway through a brief series of events I found myself on a password cracking forum with an entire subforum for Runescape passcracking. I had previously been under the impression that it was extremely impractical to crack runescape passwords. Sadly that is not the case.

    I of course assumed that all of the passcrackers there were either viruses or at least bundled with a virus however upon downloading one of them to make sure of this I discovered that it was virus free. Upon discovering this I automatically assumed that it was too outdated to work or it was just another dimwitted scam and would ask for my username and password with some lame excuse as to why it needed it to work. It didn't ask for any information regarding my account(s) so I set it to the task of cracking my level 7 combat character that I have never used and will never use for anything. It worked.

    Now knowing full well that there are working passcrackers for Runescape and that there are people on those forums that average as high as 1 or 2 accounts a day, I'm changing my passwords on my macros to something longer than 6 characters (my password on my main is 12 characters) and I suggest you all do the same if you're on the high scores. I figure anything more than 6 characters is pretty safe because A: the majority of passwords are composed of 6 lowercase letters, B: the number of possible passwords available with more than 6 characters is too damn high for anyone to even bother trying more than 6 in this instance, and C: umm it's almost 4 in the morning and I really thought that I had something to put for C but I guess I don't.

    Start reading here

    In summation to my long and rambling post don't use 6 character passwords and throw in some numbers otherwise you may be unfortunate enough to get your account stolen by some noob asshole with a pass cracker. The threat of pass crackers is still very much alive as I discovered earlier tonight.

    Passcrackers are just lame programs brute forcing.. Let me guess the lvl 7 accounts password was like "paper" or "sword" and then youre all amazed how it cracked the password. Those things just use a list of words to try as the password of the account and that is useless because barely nobody would be stupid enough to have retarded password that those things can crack, and if someone would have a retarded password nobody would want to crack it.. Just use a good password and those programs will never work to crack your pass.

    Harled I'm well aware of how a pass cracker works. None of the Runescape passcrackers I encountered use bruteforce they use wordlists. I'm just mentioning this because judging from the other threads I've read on here there are those that are entirely dismissing password crackers as any sort of a realistic threat. The majority of people and thereby the majority of Runescape players use really shitty passwords such as their pet's name and so forth which would leave them wide open to a dictionary attack.

    The actual cracking was completely unimpressive but the fact that it would work with runescape was somewhat surprising considering the large number of viruses and what not that are distributed under the guise of runescape cheats or "haxxor" tools.

    Meanage i dont agree with your decision, but anyways the best thing to do is to use the password make in other scripts remember the more characters the longer it takes to brute force for example :
    6 letter number combination password is
    36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 = 2176782336 passwords
    8 letter
    36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 * 36 = 6140942214464815497216

    Well I'm sad to say, but I used to be one of the main passcracker users at Fagex. The only way that people were getting their accounts cracked was because they used stupid passwords. Lol I remember one of the most popular was dragon.

    We weren't causing too much of a problem, until the swarms of noobs came in and ruined it for everyone.

    Did you even read any of this thread at all?? I'm almost certain that you didn't.

    He is just warning people that there are still private crackers that work (which everyone should know) and to make their passwords better.

    And there was never any cracking here AT ALL. The main site Was Fagex then it later branched off to other sites after the rush of noob crackers came in a forced Jagex to update and do something about it. I'm sure there are ways around Jagex's update that someone has figured out, but it is pretty much impossible for the average Joe that knows nothing to crack efficiently now since they won't let you log in every 5 tries or so now.

    One meaning full word to password crackers: Proxy
    The jealous temper of mankind, ever more disposed to censure than
    to praise the work of others, has constantly made the pursuit of new
    methods and systems no less perilous than the search after unknown
    lands and seas.

    Proxys don't work anymore, they now check some extra http headers to find your real ip.

    This is true. I suppose one could spoof said http headers somehow which would alleviate this problem if one were to have an interest in this sort of thing. I mean if some extra http headers give away your real ip address and there's no way of hiding it then what use is any proxy for privacy or anonymity?

    Just use a complicated password and the pass cracker can never get your pass.

    The pass cracker make use of wordlist and most of the words are from dictionary. Just don't get a password like apple, ball and cat. lol.

    Even if it is only 6 character long, i would like to see how a pass cracker crack a pass like f40gc3.

    Never say never man. It's highly unlikely that anyone using a passcracker would ever get onto an account with a password like that but that's if they were using a dictionary attack. If they were bruteforcing it then yes they would eventually get that account. There are only 2,176,782,336 possible combinations for a 6 character password using only letters and numbers. It would however take them roughly 207 years of continuous trying to go through every possible combination. Likely they'd get lucky and get it much sooner than that but it would still take an impractical amount of time.

    I recall at one point I figured the minimum amount of energy it would take to brute force my password that I have for an encrypted hard drive partition and while I don't recall exactly how much it was I do remember that it would be more than the yearly power output of the sun and longer than the universe has existed thus far.

    It's just a matter of time.. Like if the cracker would use some advanced system that tries 100's of passwords per minute or so, it wouldn't really even take that long, specially if it wouldn't just use a wordlist to try passes from (would generate random passwords or use a system to try them in order).

    My old pass for my Computer class used to honesty be yarneyvlarneyyorginsnaven1435248243666543< A word i made up and my friends b day and Phone number.

    I'll never be craked (I hope)

    But every day i log off i put everything back in the bank with a nice little pin on it.


    But pass cracking noob accounts is very very mean.
    I can see the drawl of cracking a lvl 100's...

    Most people never even used long pass lists. I always ran about 3 crackers at the same time with a pass list of about 20 common words, some being pencil, qwerty, and dragon. And I cracked 10 accounts per day easily. So you guys saying how long it would take to crack an account with those weird pass's are wrong. Thats not how we cracked at all, unless your focused on one account specifically.

    Yeah trying the most common password on a huge amount of accounts is obviously the more efficient way of doing it. However I was just saying that if one wanted to they could just go through a huge number of possible combinations.

    I know that we're not supposed to post anything that could aid a password cracker but if you actually look at the password list I have attached you'll agree with me that there's no way this is going to benefit anybody other than giving them a laugh. If an admin asks me to remove it then it's gone. Just please don't ban me for something that was only done for the purpose of entertainment and was in no way intended to encourage, aid, or promote password cracking.

    Edit: There's no attachment because I'm going to check with an admin before I risk it. I'd really rather not get banned over something so stupid.
