    LC4 can brute force passwords with special characters. One interesting
    thing that I found, which was recently addressed on one of these
    lists, whas the fact that LC4 will display "empty" if the password
    is to long. I don't know if LC4 can do anything if the password
    is this long... interesting idea with the special characters on the
    usernames for your usable admin account. I think i'll implement
    that.
