Some advice.. only try to crack the LM hashes. They won't be longer
then 14 chars.
It's even better than that. You're cracking two seven character hashes.
For a total of fourteen. It's faster to crack two seven character
passwords, than it is to crack one fourteen character pass.
Lan Manager should NEVER be run in production.
EVER.
Also read a little bit for more info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LM_hash
The hashes are best retrieved with dll injection into lsass.

Hi Friends,
Nowaday, I am studying on the Topic - Cracking Windows password.
There are lot of tools out there which can dump LM and NTLM hashes for
you. But as far i know, you can't touch the SAM file when windows is
running, so, how does these tools work.
Is the sam dumped in-memory?
Regards
