    Indeed yeh, the OP didn't make that all that clear though. He just said
    he had found some password cracking software for windows. Not that he
    found an up to date build.

    For some of us the thought of having to compile software ourselves isn't
    an alien concept, when source code is available then binaries are
    indirectly available too.

    The OP was correct it may be very useful (for those willing to trust 3rd
    party builds) and I didn't mean to detract from that. He just didn't
    state what he thought was useful other than it was a windows password
    cracker, which to me wasn't news and definitely wasn't disclosure.
