Re: Programs for breaking Classic Ciphers

Mike,
Sorry to hear my program crashes your windows box ;)>
Although I only maintain the Linux and online versions
(http://evercrack.cjb.cc) I am curious as to when and how
it crashes... Is there a particular ciphertext or feature you
are using that causes the crash? I'd appreciate any
info.
regards,
Cory Michael Boston

Hello all,

I've been searching the internet far and wide for programs geared towards breaking
and/or key finding of classic ciphers; substitution, transposition, Vigenere, etc. So
far not much luck. Have tried Evercrack, but it always manages to crash my windows
box (xp). SCB Solver from 'Secret Code Breaker' website is ok, but not much good for
anything other than a simple monoalpha shift cipher. I'd be most appreciate if
someone could point me in the right direction or let me know where I might find such
programs. Thanks!
