    How do you crack a deviantart cookie?

    I need to learn the password of a deviantart cookie that I can't delete for a certain reason but still allows for me to surf through deviantart on an account.

    How would I go about doing it?

    You don't crack cookies, you just simply use them as your own.

    The point of stealing cookies isn't to get a password from them, because **% of the time you can't.

    Just delete your own Devianart cookie and replace it with the one you got. Or if you have FireFox, use the Add n' Edit cookies extension and replace the information with the one you have.

    Also, posting the actual cookie would be helpful.

    If the password hash is included in the cookie, you could see its character length to figure out what algorithm is is hashed with (MD5, SHA*, etc.), then if it hasn't been salted and is relatively simple, it could be entered into a rainbow table password-cracker. If not, it's good old brute-forcing for you; that's if you've got a spare computer and days of waiting for the possibility that it is a short password.

    But then again all that is pointless, since you can probably set it as your own browser's cookie and simply steal their session.
